Yes it does support patterns in filenames.

Subject: pattern for input files in MapReduce

Hi

I'm using the latest version of Hadoop. Does it support specifying a pattern
for input file names, apart from specifying an  input path thru
jobConf.setInputPath(). In my case, logfiles for over a month are stored in
a single folder with date+hour embedded in their names, and I want mapreduce
to run on one day's logs at a time.

TIA
Sandhya
