Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-1250:
------------------------------------
This will be a great addition!
A few improvements I'd like to see:
- this should accept Hadoop URIs in addition to file names, perhaps by using
tool.Util#inputOrStdin
- running the command without any parameters should print a usage message
- I'd prefer we call this simply 'concat' rather than 'bulkconcat'
> Add a Tool that Efficiently Concatenates Avro Files

> It'd be useful to have a Tool that uses appendAllFrom (with recompress set to
> false) to concatenate one or more of avro files to either another file or
> stdout. The Tool would fail if any input files had a different schema or
> metadata to ensure the tool doesn't try to decompress the contents.
> I've attached a patch that does this.
