Deletes must match the deleted cell's coordinates exactly. When scanning, a delete cell suppresses older versions. To delete a cell from 't1' at row 'r1' under column 'c1' marked with the time 'ts1', do: hbase> delete 'ns1:t1', 'r1', 'c1', ts1 hbase> delete 't1', 'r1', 'c1', ts1 The same command can also be run on a table reference. Suppose you had a reference t to table 't1', the corresponding command would be: hbase> t.delete 'r1', 'c1', ts1 EOF end def command(table, row, column, timestamp = org.apache.hadoop.hbase.HConstants::LATEST_TIMESTAMP) delete(table(table), row, column, timestamp) end def delete(table, row, column, timestamp = org.apache.hadoop.hbase.HConstants::LATEST_TIMESTAMP) format_simple_command do table._delete_internal(row, column, timestamp) end end end end end #Add the method table.delete that calls delete.delete ::Hbase::Table.add_shell_command("delete")
