+Note that the `create feed` statement does not initiate the flow of data from Twitter into our AsterixDB instance. Instead, the `create feed` statement only results in registering the feed with AsterixDB. The flow of data along a feed is initiated when it is connected
to a target dataset using the connect feed statement (which we shall revisit later).
-####Ingesting an RSS Feed
-RSS (Rich Site Summary); originally RDF Site Summary; often called Really Simple Syndication, uses a family of standard web feed formats to publish frequently updated information: blog entries, news headlines, audio, video. An RSS document (called "feed", "web feed", or "channel") includes full or summarized text, and metadata, like publishing date and author's name. RSS feeds enable publishers to syndicate data automatically.
-
-
-#####Using the "rss_feed" feed adapter#####
-AsterixDB provides a built-in feed adaptor that allows retrieving data given a collection of RSS end point URLs. As observed in the case of ingesting tweets, it is required to model an RSS data item using AQL.
-
- create dataverse feeds if not exists;
- use dataverse feeds;
-
- create type Rss if not exists as open{
- id: string,
- title: string,
- description: string,
- link: string
- };
-
- create dataset RssDataset (Rss)
- primary key id;
-
-
-Next, we define an RSS feed using our built-in adaptor "rss_feed".
-
- create feed my_feed using
- rss_feed (
- ("type-name"="Rss"),
- ("url"="http://rss.cnn.com/rss/edition.rss")
- );
-
-In the above definition, the configuration parameter "url" can be a comma separated list that reflects a collection of RSS URLs, where each URL corresponds to an RSS endpoint or a RSS feed.
-The "rss_adaptor" retrieves data from each of the specified RSS URLs (comma separated values) in parallel.
-
-
-So far, we have discussed the mechanism for retrieving data from the external world into the AsterixDB system. However, the arriving data may require certain pre-processing prior to being persisted in AsterixDB storage. Next, we discuss how the arriving data can be pre-processed.
-
-
-
-## <a id="PreprocessingCollectedData">Preprocessing Collected Data</a> ###
-A feed definition may optionally include the specification of a
-user-defined function that is to be applied to each feed record prior
-to persistence. Examples of pre-processing might include adding
-attributes, filtering out records, sampling, sentiment analysis, feature
-extraction, etc. The pre-processing is expressed as a userdefined
-function (UDF) that can be defined in AQL or in a programming
-language like Java. An AQL UDF is a good fit when
-pre-processing a record requires the result of a query (join or aggregate)
-over data contained in AsterixDB datasets. More sophisticated
-processing such as sentiment analysis of text is better handled
-by providing a Java UDF. A Java UDF has an initialization phase
-that allows the UDF to access any resources it may need to initialize
-itself prior to being used in a data flow. It is assumed by the
-AsterixDB compiler to be stateless and thus usable as an embarassingly
-parallel black box. In constrast, the AsterixDB compiler can
-reason about an AQL UDF and involve the use of indexes during
-its invocation.
-
-We consider an example transformation of a raw tweet into its lightweight version - ProcessedTweet - which is defined next.
-
- create type ProcessedTweet if not exists as open {
- id: string,
- user_name:string,
- location:point,
- created_at:string,
- message_text:string,
- country: string,
- topics: [string]
- };
-
-
-The processing required in transforming a collected tweet to its lighter version (of type ProcessedTweet) involves extracting the topics or hash-tags (if any) in a tweet
-and collecting them in the referred-topics attribute for the tweet.
-Additionally, the latitude and longitude values (doubles) are combined into the spatial point type. Note that spatial data types are considered as first class citizens that come with the support for creating indexes. Next we show a revised version of our example TwitterFeed that involves the use of a UDF. We assume that the UDF that contains the transformation logic into a ProcessedTweet is avaialable as a Java UDF inside an AsterixDB library named 'testlib'. We defer the writing of a Java UDF and its installation as part of an AsterixDB library to a later section of this document.
-
- create feed ProcessedTwitterFeed if not exists
- using "push_twitter"
- (("type-name"="Tweet"));
- apply function testlib#processRawTweet;
-
-Note that a feed adaptor and a UDF act as pluggable components. These
-contribute towards providing a generic ‘plug-and-play‘ model where
-custom implementations can be provided to cater to specific requirements.
-
-####Building a Cascade Network of Feeds####
-Multiple high-level applications may wish to consume the data
-ingested from a data feed. Each such application might perceive the
-feed in a different way and require the arriving data to be processed
-and/or persisted differently. Building a separate flow of data from
-the external source for each application is wasteful of resources as
-the pre-processing or transformations required by each application
-might overlap and could be done together in an incremental fashion
-to avoid redundancy. A single flow of data from the external source
-could provide data for multiple applications. To achieve this, we
-introduce the notion of primary and secondary feeds in AsterixDB.
-
-A feed in AsterixDB is considered to be a primary feed if it gets
-its data from an external data source. The records contained in a
-feed (subsequent to any pre-processing) are directed to a designated
-AsterixDB dataset. Alternatively or additionally, these records can
-be used to derive other feeds known as secondary feeds. A secondary
-feed is similar to its parent feed in every other aspect; it can
-have an associated UDF to allow for any subsequent processing,
-can be persisted into a dataset, and/or can be made to derive other
-secondary feeds to form a cascade network. A primary feed and a
-dependent secondary feed form a hierarchy. As an example, we next show an
-example AQL statement that redefines the previous feed—
-ProcessedTwitterFeed in terms of their
-respective parent feed (TwitterFeed).
-
- create secondary feed ProcessedTwitterFeed from feed TwitterFeed
- apply function testlib#addFeatures;
-
-
####Lifecycle of a Feed####

-is initiated) only when it is connected to a dataset using the connect
-feed AQL statement (Figure 7). Subsequent to a connect feed

-###Installing an AsterixDB Library###
-
-We assume you have followed the [http://asterixdb.ics.uci.edu/documentation/install.html instructions] to set up a running AsterixDB instance. Let us refer your AsterixDB instance by the name "my_asterix".
-
-
-- Step 1: Stop the AsterixDB instance if it is in the ACTIVE state.
-
- $ managix stop -n my_asterix
-
-
-- Step 2: Install the library using Managix install command. Just to illustrate, we use the help command to look up the syntax
-
- $ managix help -cmd install
- Installs a library to an asterix instance.
- Options
- n Name of Asterix Instance
- d Name of the dataverse under which the library will be installed
- l Name of the library
- p Path to library zip bundle
-
-
-Above is a sample output and explains the usage and the required parameters. Each library has a name and is installed under a dataverse. Recall that we had created a dataverse by the name - "feeds" prior to creating our datatypes and dataset. We shall name our library - "testlib".
-
-We assume you have a library zip bundle that needs to be installed.
-To install the library, use the Managix install command. An example is shown below.
-
- $ managix install -n my_asterix -d feeds -l testlib -p <put the absolute path of the library zip bundle here>
-
-You should see the following message:
-
- INFO: Installed library testlib
-
-We shall next start our AsterixDB instance using the start command as shown below.
-
- $ managix start -n my_asterix
-
-You may now use the AsterixDB library in AQL statements and queries. To look at the installed artifacts, you may execute the following query at the AsterixDB web-console.
-
- for $x in dataset Metadata.Function
- return $x
-
- for $x in dataset Metadata.Library
- return $x
-
-Our library is now installed and is ready to be used.
