Run and Test a Streaming project

Go to the SAP HANA Streaming Development perspective.

From the dropdown arrow next to the Run button, select the streaming server to run this project.

You are switched into the SAP HANA Streaming Run-Test perspective if the project deploys successfully.

If you get an error message saying that the project didn’t start, first check for compile errors. If it’s compiling without errors but still won’t start, see the Streaming Analytics Troubleshooting Guide on the SAP Help Portal.

In the Server View, double-click on MACHINEDATA to open it in the Stream View.

Note: You won’t see any data, because you haven’t loaded any data yet.

Open the ACTIVITY_HIST stream in the Stream View as well.

In the Manual Input tab (the lower left tile in the default perspective layout), click the Select Stream button to connect the manual input tool to your freezer_monitor project, as shown below.

Click on MACHINEDATA, then hit OK.

Fill in some values to create an input event.

• Enter any value for MACHINEID.
• If the “Use Current Date” checkbox is selected, it will fill in the EVENT_TIME automatically using the current time.
• If you set the EVENT_NAME to DOOR, it will pass through the filter and appear in ACTIVITY_HIST; any other value will not.
• The EVENT_DESCRIPTION field can be anything you like.
• Set the EVENT_VALUE to either Door Open or Door Close.

Click the Publish button to send the event.

View your event in the Stream View tabs. Keep in mind that all input events appear in the input stream, but only events where EVENT_NAME=DOOR appear in the ACTIVITY_HIST stream.

You can also view the ACTIVITY_HIST table in the HANA database to see that any events that appear in the ACTIVITY_HIST stream get recorded in the connected database table.
