```
@InterfaceAudience.Public
public class ZooKeeper
extends Object
implements AutoCloseable
```
This is the main class of ZooKeeper client library. To use a ZooKeeper service, an application must first instantiate an object of ZooKeeper class. All the iterations will be done by calling the methods of ZooKeeper class. The methods of this class are thread-safe unless otherwise noted.
Once a connection to a server is established, a session ID is assigned to the client. The client will send heart beats to the server periodically to keep the session valid.
The application can call ZooKeeper APIs through a client as long as the session ID of the client remains valid.
If for some reason, the client fails to send heart beats to the server for a prolonged period of time (exceeding the sessionTimeout value, for instance), the server will expire the session, and the session ID will become invalid. The client object will no longer be usable. To make ZooKeeper API calls, the application must create a new client object.
If the ZooKeeper server the client currently connects to fails or otherwise does not respond, the client will automatically try to connect to another server before its session ID expires. If successful, the application can continue to use the client.
The ZooKeeper API methods are either synchronous or asynchronous. Synchronous methods blocks until the server has responded. Asynchronous methods just queue the request for sending and return immediately. They take a callback object that will be executed either on successful execution of the request or on error with an appropriate return code (rc) indicating the error.
Some successful ZooKeeper API calls can leave watches on the "data nodes" in the ZooKeeper server. Other successful ZooKeeper API calls can trigger those watches. Once a watch is triggered, an event will be delivered to the client which left the watch at the first place. Each watch can be triggered only once. Thus, up to one event will be delivered to a client for every watch it leaves.
A client needs an object of a class implementing Watcher interface for processing the events delivered to the client. When a client drops the current connection and re-connects to a server, all the existing watches are considered as being triggered but the undelivered events are lost. To emulate this, the client will generate a special event to tell the event handler a connection has been dropped. This special event has EventType None and KeeperState Disconnected.

public ZooKeeper(String connectString,

          throws IOException
```
    To create a ZooKeeper client object, the application needs to pass a connection string containing a comma separated list of host:port pairs, each corresponding to a ZooKeeper server.
    Session establishment is asynchronous. This constructor will initiate connection to the server and return immediately - potentially (usually) before the session is fully established. The watcher argument specifies the watcher that will be notified of any changes in state. This notification can come at any point before or after the constructor call has returned.
    The instantiated ZooKeeper client object will pick an arbitrary server from the connectString and attempt to connect to it. If establishment of the connection fails, another server in the connect string will be tried (the order is non-deterministic, as we random shuffle the list), until a connection is established. The client will continue attempts until the session is explicitly closed.
    Added in 3.2.0: An optional "chroot" suffix may also be appended to the connection string. This will run the client commands while interpreting all paths relative to this root (similar to the unix chroot command).
    
    Parameters:
    
    connectString - comma separated host:port pairs, each corresponding to a zk server. e.g. "127.0.0.1:3000,127.0.0.1:3001,127.0.0.1:3002" If the optional chroot suffix is used the example would look like: "127.0.0.1:3000,127.0.0.1:3001,127.0.0.1:3002/app/a" where the client would be rooted at "/app/a" and all paths would be relative to this root - ie getting/setting/etc... "/foo/bar" would result in operations being run on "/app/a/foo/bar" (from the server perspective).
    
    sessionTimeout - session timeout in milliseconds
    
    watcher - a watcher object which will be notified of state changes, may also be notified for node events
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - in cases of network failure
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if an invalid chroot path is specified

    To create a ZooKeeper client object, the application needs to pass a connection string containing a comma separated list of host:port pairs, each corresponding to a ZooKeeper server.
    Session establishment is asynchronous. This constructor will initiate connection to the server and return immediately - potentially (usually) before the session is fully established. The watcher argument specifies the watcher that will be notified of any changes in state. This notification can come at any point before or after the constructor call has returned.
    The instantiated ZooKeeper client object will pick an arbitrary server from the connectString and attempt to connect to it. If establishment of the connection fails, another server in the connect string will be tried (the order is non-deterministic, as we random shuffle the list), until a connection is established. The client will continue attempts until the session is explicitly closed.
    Added in 3.2.0: An optional "chroot" suffix may also be appended to the connection string. This will run the client commands while interpreting all paths relative to this root (similar to the unix chroot command).
    
    Parameters:
    
    connectString - comma separated host:port pairs, each corresponding to a zk server. e.g. "127.0.0.1:3000,127.0.0.1:3001,127.0.0.1:3002" If the optional chroot suffix is used the example would look like: "127.0.0.1:3000,127.0.0.1:3001,127.0.0.1:3002/app/a" where the client would be rooted at "/app/a" and all paths would be relative to this root - ie getting/setting/etc... "/foo/bar" would result in operations being run on "/app/a/foo/bar" (from the server perspective).
    
    sessionTimeout - session timeout in milliseconds
    
    watcher - a watcher object which will be notified of state changes, may also be notified for node events
    
    canBeReadOnly - (added in 3.4) whether the created client is allowed to go to read-only mode in case of partitioning. Read-only mode basically means that if the client can't find any majority servers but there's partitioned server it could reach, it connects to one in read-only mode, i.e. read requests are allowed while write requests are not. It continues seeking for majority in the background.
    
    conf - (added in 3.5.2) passing this conf object gives each client the flexibility of configuring properties differently compared to other instances
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - in cases of network failure

  - updateServerList
```
public void updateServerList(String connectString)
                      throws IOException
```
    This function allows a client to update the connection string by providing a new comma separated list of host:port pairs, each corresponding to a ZooKeeper server.
    The function invokes a probabilistic load-balancing algorithm which may cause the client to disconnect from its current host with the goal to achieve expected uniform number of connections per server in the new list. In case the current host to which the client is connected is not in the new list this call will always cause the connection to be dropped. Otherwise, the decision is based on whether the number of servers has increased or decreased and by how much. For example, if the previous connection string contained 3 hosts and now the list contains these 3 hosts and 2 more hosts, 40% of clients connected to each of the 3 hosts will move to one of the new hosts in order to balance the load. The algorithm will disconnect from the current host with probability 0.4 and in this case cause the client to connect to one of the 2 new hosts, chosen at random.
    If the connection is dropped, the client moves to a special mode "reconfigMode" where he chooses a new server to connect to using the probabilistic algorithm. After finding a server, or exhausting all servers in the new list after trying all of them and failing to connect, the client moves back to the normal mode of operation where it will pick an arbitrary server from the connectString and attempt to connect to it. If establishment of the connection fails, another server in the connect string will be tried (the order is non-deterministic, as we random shuffle the list), until a connection is established. The client will continue attempts until the session is explicitly closed (or the session is expired by the server).
    
    Parameters:
    
    connectString - comma separated host:port pairs, each corresponding to a zk server. e.g. "127.0.0.1:3000,127.0.0.1:3001,127.0.0.1:3002" If the optional chroot suffix is used the example would look like: "127.0.0.1:3000,127.0.0.1:3001,127.0.0.1:3002/app/a" where the client would be rooted at "/app/a" and all paths would be relative to this root - ie getting/setting/etc...

```
    Create a node with the given path. The node data will be the given data, and node acl will be the given acl.
    The flags argument specifies whether the created node will be ephemeral or not.
    An ephemeral node will be removed by the ZooKeeper automatically when the session associated with the creation of the node expires.
    The flags argument can also specify to create a sequential node. The actual path name of a sequential node will be the given path plus a suffix "i" where i is the current sequential number of the node. The sequence number is always fixed length of 10 digits, 0 padded. Once such a node is created, the sequential number will be incremented by one.
    If a node with the same actual path already exists in the ZooKeeper, a KeeperException with error code KeeperException.NodeExists will be thrown. Note that since a different actual path is used for each invocation of creating sequential node with the same path argument, the call will never throw "file exists" KeeperException.
    If the parent node does not exist in the ZooKeeper, a KeeperException with error code KeeperException.NoNode will be thrown.
    An ephemeral node cannot have children. If the parent node of the given path is ephemeral, a KeeperException with error code KeeperException.NoChildrenForEphemerals will be thrown.
    This operation, if successful, will trigger all the watches left on the node of the given path by exists and getData API calls, and the watches left on the parent node by getChildren API calls.
    If a node is created successfully, the ZooKeeper server will trigger the watches on the path left by exists calls, and the watches on the parent of the node by getChildren calls.
    The maximum allowable size of the data array is 1 MB (1,048,576 bytes). Arrays larger than this will cause a KeeperExecption to be thrown.
    
    Parameters:
    
    path - the path for the node

    Delete the node with the given path. The call will succeed if such a node exists, and the given version matches the node's version (if the given version is -1, it matches any node's versions).
    A KeeperException with error code KeeperException.NoNode will be thrown if the nodes does not exist.
    A KeeperException with error code KeeperException.BadVersion will be thrown if the given version does not match the node's version.
    A KeeperException with error code KeeperException.NotEmpty will be thrown if the node has children.
    This operation, if successful, will trigger all the watches on the node of the given path left by exists API calls, and the watches on the parent node left by getChildren API calls.
    
    Parameters:
    
    path - the path of the node to be deleted.
    
    version - the expected node version.
    
    Throws:
    
    InterruptedException - IF the server transaction is interrupted

```
    Executes multiple ZooKeeper operations or none of them.
    On success, a list of results is returned. On failure, an exception is raised which contains partial results and error details, see KeeperException.getResults()
    Note: The maximum allowable size of all of the data arrays in all of the setData operations in this single request is typically 1 MB (1,048,576 bytes). This limit is specified on the server via jute.maxbuffer. Requests larger than this will cause a KeeperException to be thrown.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ops - An iterable that contains the operations to be done. These should be created using the factory methods on Op.
    
    Returns:
    
    A list of results, one for each input Op, the order of which exactly matches the order of the ops input operations.
    
    Throws:
    
    InterruptedException - If the operation was interrupted. The operation may or may not have succeeded, but will not have partially succeeded if this exception is thrown.
    
    KeeperException - If the operation could not be completed due to some error in doing one of the specified ops.
