-------------------------------------
Summary: UUID PType support for Writables
Key: CRUNCH-181
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CRUNCH-181
Project: Crunch
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Core
Reporter: Micah Whitacre
Assignee: Josh Wills
Priority: Minor
UUID is a pretty basic and common datatype used for identifiers. It'd be nice
if there was support through Writables.uuids() similar to other common data
types.
The lack of support is most likely due to the lack of formal UUIDWritable
support in Hadoop itself but a UUIDWritable implementation has been posted for
awhile[1] and seems pretty trivial to even roll your own and incorporate.
