Add interactive TUI #464
Description
Feature Description
we plan to build a terminal user interface (TUI) using ratatui, providing an interactive way to explore and troubleshoot hudi tables.
Phase 1 – Commit Timeline -> Provide a visual overview of table commit history
- Display commit timeline (timestamp, type: UPSERT, DELETE, etc.)
- Show commit metadata summary (e.g., record count, file count)
Phase 2 – Table & Storage Stats Dashboard -> Offer a quick health overview
- Show basic table metadata: schema, table type, partition info
- Display overall stats: total files, total records, last commit time
- Include storage-level metrics: data size, parquet/log file counts
Phase 3 – File Management View -> Help users diagnose small-file problems and compaction needs
- List files by partition (with size, commit association)
- Highlight small files (configurable threshold, e.g., <128MB)
- Show file “age” and related commit
we can call existing hudi-core APIs, or build new ones if needed. the goal is to make it work with python (e.g. pip install xxx) to reach more users.
