> Make concat tool handle directories as input
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1909
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1909
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: java
> Affects Versions: 1.8.1
> Reporter: Sebastian Wallin
> Priority: Minor
>
> I'm having a situation where I want to concatenate thousands of files in a
> directory. Currently this generates `Argument list too long` when the shell
> tries to expand into a list of files.
> It would be great for the `concat` tool to handle directories as input for
> use cases like this, as well as being consistent with the `cat` tool
> There is a similar issue filed (AVRO-1787), which requests both directories
> and glob patters to be handled. IMHO it would be enough to make the `concat`
> tool handle directories, as a start. It would also require a lot less code to
> be changed.
