Allow tools to read files via hadoop FileSystem class
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: AVRO-867
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-867
Project: Avro
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: java
Reporter: Joe Crobak
Assignee: Joe Crobak
It would be great if I could use the various tools to read/parse files that are
in HDFS, S3, etc via the
[FileSystem|http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/current/api/org/apache/hadoop/fs/FileSystem.html]
api. We could retain backwards compatibility by assuming that unqualified urls
are "file://" but allow reading of files from fully qualified urls such as
hdfs://. The required apis are already part of the avro-tools uber jar to
support the TetherTool.
