Rust Native API Native API

IoTDB uses Thrift as a cross language RPC framework, so access to IoTDB can be achieved through the interface provided by Thrift. This document will introduce how to generate a native Rust interface that can access IoTDB.

Dependents

• JDK >= 1.8
• Rust >= 1.0.0
• thrift 0.14.1
• Linux、Macos or like unix
• Windows+bash

Thrift (0.14.1 or higher) must be installed to compile Thrift files into Rust code. The following is the official installation tutorial, and in the end, you should receive a Thrift executable file.

Compile the Thrift library and generate the Rust native interface

1. Find the pom.xml file in the root directory of the IoTDB source code folder.
2. Open the pom.xml file and find the following content:

<execution>
  <id>generate-thrift-sources-java</id>
  <phase>generate-sources</phase>
  <goals>
      <goal>compile</goal>
  </goals>
  <configuration>
      <generator>java</generator>
      <thriftExecutable>${thrift.exec.absolute.path}</thriftExecutable>
      <thriftSourceRoot>${basedir}/src/main/thrift</thriftSourceRoot>
  </configuration>
</execution>

1. Referring to this setting, add the following content to the pom.xml file to generate the native interface for Rust:

<execution>
    <id>generate-thrift-sources-rust</id>
    <phase>generate-sources</phase>
    <goals>
        <goal>compile</goal>
    </goals>
    <configuration>
        <generator>rs</generator>
        <thriftExecutable>${thrift.exec.absolute.path}</thriftExecutable>
        <thriftSourceRoot>${basedir}/src/main/thrift</thriftSourceRoot>
        <includes>**/common.thrift,**/client.thrift</includes>
        <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/generated-sources-rust</outputDirectory>
    </configuration>
</execution>

1. In the root directory of the IoTDB source code folder，run mvn clean generate-sources，

This command will automatically delete the files in iotdb/iotdb-protocol/thrift/target and iotdb/iotdb-protocol/thrift-commons/target, and repopulate the folder with the newly generated throttle file.

Using the Rust native interface

copy iotdb/iotdb-protocol/thrift/target/generated-sources-rust/ and iotdb/iotdb-protocol/thrift-commons/target/generated-sources-rust/ in your project。
