Chris Riccomini commented on SAMZA-235:
---------------------------------------
+1 on this idea.
I like the thought of just recording some Wikipedia data, and using a
FileSystem consumer to process it.
One worry that I have is having people conflate the idea of processing file
data with batch processing. The goal of the hello-samza project is to show how
to process realtime data. Going with a file-based approach is that not everyone
will get that it's just an example, and most streams have no end.
> Add internal input stream for hello-samza

> As reported by Sonali and Yan Fang, some corporations blocks IRC
> service/port. So they will not be able to run the hello-samza successfully.

> As suggested by [~jghoman] and [~criccomini] , we should add internal input
> stream for hello-samza as an alternative. There are two ways:
> 1. use simulate/fake data.
> 2. use local environment related data.
> I lean to the first approach. We can simulate wikimedia data (though it is a
> little boring). Because it can reuse the WikipediaParserStreamTask and
> WikipediaStatsStreamTask. Another reason is, since we use simulate data, the
> output is very predictable, that will help bring hello-samza to integration
> test stated in SAMZA-205 .
> In addition, if we use FS reader in SAMZA-138 , that will also be a good
> example for writing SystemFactory (besides the out-of-box KafkaSystemFactory).
