Thanks Emilio,
I will take a
look at the (de)serializers – as you say, the new naming
matches the functionality better.
When using
SchemaCopyJob to update existing indexes to the new format,
will the feature encoding also be changed? (i.e. if my
current tables have avro encoded features, will the encoding
be updated to kryo in the new index?)
Thanks again,
Ben

Hi Ben,
We don't really have a document of the breaking changes, as
most users of geomesa interact with us at the geotools
interface level, so they aren't affected. The only change most
people would have to make is migrating data to take advantage
of new index improvements - that process is outlined here:
https://github.com/locationtech/geomesa/tree/master/geomesa-jobs#updating-existing-data-to-the-latest-index-format
If you're using our serializers directly, then you can take a
look at the unit tests for examples. The usage is pretty
simple:
https://github.com/locationtech/geomesa/blob/master/geomesa-features/geomesa-feature-kryo/src/test/scala/org/locationtech/geomesa/features/kryo/KryoFeatureSerializerTest.scala
Kryo is the main serialization format we're supporting going
forward, although we also have options to use avro or native
byte buffers.
As you noticed, we changed the names from encoders to
serializers to be clearer about what they are actually doing.
We also moved around several packages and modules (as you also
noticed).
We'll try to get the geomesa.org links sorted out, thanks
bringing that to our attention!
If you have any more questions, or things still aren't clear,
please let us know.
Thanks,
Emilio

Hello,
I’m attempting to transition some code
from a CCRI fork (specifically, tag geomesa-DCB-v3.1) based
upon 1.0.0-rc.7 to geomesa-1.1.0-rc.2. It seems that in the
interim, there have been a number of breaking changes. Some
appear obvious (package name changes), some less so.
In particular, my code was making use of
1.5-DBC’s
org.locationtech.geomesa.core.data.SimpleFeatureEncoder –
has this now been broken into the
SimpleFeatureSerializer/Deserializer classes? In fact, the
whole feature landscape seems to be more complex than it was
in earlier versions.
Is there a summary document of the
breaking changes available?
Thanks very much!
Ben
p.s. The download instructions on
geomesa.org are a bit wonky. The instructions to clone a
branch geomesa-accumulo1.5-1.1.0-rc.2 seem to be incorrect.
The clone works with the tag geomesa-1.1.0-rc.2.
Also, the link to the tar.gz for
v1.1.0-rc.2 is broken, and the link to 1.1.0-rc.3-SNAPSHOT
contains pom.xml files where the version number is
1.0.0-rc.8.
