Konstantin Boudnik updated BIGTOP-1097:
---------------------------------------

    Description: 
Bigtop platform depends on groovy extensively and we see a trend to introduce 
new functionality into the cluster deployment, etc. that will greatly benefit 
from the presence of a dynamic, functional scripting language on top of JVM.

Hence, it makes sense to provide Groovy runtime environment as a part of Bigtop 
installable stack (e.g. think of bigtop-utils type of package). It will be 
lightweight and only needs to include a couple of jar files from a standard 
Groovy distribution. There's no need to build Groovy from scratch but just 
download the binary archive, extract jars we need, and wrap them into a Linux 
package.
