-----------------------------------------
Summary: TableMapReduceUtil should allow using JobConf, not Job
Key: HBASE-16383
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16383
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: util
Reporter: Nikolai Grigoriev
Priority: Minor
I was recently trying to set up an MR job initialized with TableMapReduceUtil
to be ran by Oozie. Oozie offers a way to configure the job by providing an
implementation of org.apache.oozie.action.hadoop.OozieActionConfigurator.
Unfortunately, this interface is using org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobConf, not
Job. I may be wrong but I believe that everything TableMapReduceUtil does
actually maps to the job configuration so it does not really need the Job
itself. If this is true, probably it would be more appropriate to use JobConf
in TableMapReduceUtil instead of Job? Or provide the methods for both.
