hadoop fs -put and -copyFromLocal do not support globs in the source path
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7141
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7141
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Components: fs
Affects Versions: 0.20.2
Environment: Cloudera CDH3b3
Reporter: Jay Hacker
Priority: Minor
I'd like to be able to use Hadoop globbing with the FsShell -put command, but
it doesn't work:
{noformat}
$ ls
file1 file2
$ hadoop fs -put '*' .
put: File * does not exist.
{noformat}
This has probably gone unnoticed because your shell usually handles it, but a)
I'd like to be able to call 'hadoop fs' programatically without a shell, b) it
doesn't work in Pig or Grunt, where there is no shell helping you, and c)
Hadoop globbing differs from shell globbing and it would be nice to be able to
use Hadoop globbing consistently throughout Hadoop.
