Hi All,

I want to use Stargate to get multiple rows by their
ID/Rowkey, essentially what's described here, but via REST.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13310434/hbase-api-get-data-rows-information-by-list-of-row-ids

1. Is this possible?
2. If so, Could someone give me an example of the syntax I should use to do
this?
3. If not, is their some alternative?

Many thanks,
JR

Per http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hbase/trunk/hbase-server/src/test/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/rest/TestMultiRowResource.java
and
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hbase/trunk/hbase-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/rest/TableResource.java,
it appears you can. Also, see
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hbase/trunk/hbase-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/rest/MultiRowResource.java,

The syntax seems to be /multiget?row=id1&row=id2&row=id3 and so forth.

 @Path("multiget")
  public MultiRowResource getMultipleRowResource(

and you get back a MultiRowResource.

Let us know if this works as expected.

Also - this was added in 0.92
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3541) ... since you
didn't mention your hbase version.
