Alejandro Abdelnur updated HADOOP-6894:
---------------------------------------
Attachment: HadoopClientToolsV2.pdf
Attached is a proposal (V2) Owen and I worked out together.
This proposal enables a complementary integration with HADOOP-6255
What has changed:
* hadoop client commands are just another tool
* 'tools/' dir is now 'share/'
* there can be a special tool 'commons' where 'plugin' tools like har, viewfs,
hdfsprx are added as dependencies
* all tools registered in 'commons' are always avail to any tool that depends
on 'commons'
* there is an 'etc/' directory where tools configurations live
> Common foundation for Hadoop client tools
> -----------------------------------------

> Key: HADOOP-6894
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6894
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur
> Attachments: HadoopClientTools.pdf, HadoopClientToolsV2.pdf
>
>
> As Hadoop widespreads and matures the number of tools and utilities for users
> keeps growing.
> Some of them are bundled with Hadoop core, some with Hadoop contrib, some on
> their own, some are full fledged servers on their own. For example, just to
> name a few: distcp, streaming, pipes, har, pig, hive, oozie.
> Today there is no standard mechanism for making these tools available to
> users. Neither there is a standard mechanism for these tools to integrate and
> distributed them with each other.
> The lack of a common foundation creates issues for developers and users.
