> Attachments: ReplicatingDirectory.java

> I've been working on a Directory implementation that mirrors the index files
> to HDFS (or other Hadoop supported FileSystem).
> A ReplicatingDirectory delegates all calls to an underlying Directory
> (supplied in the constructor). The only hooks are the deleteFile and sync
> calls. We submit deletes and replications to a single scheduler thread to
> keep things serializer. During a sync call, if "segments.gen" is seen in the
> list of files, we know a commit is finishing. After calling the deletage's
> sync method, we initialize an asynchronous replication as follows.
> * Read segments.gen (before leaving ReplicatingDirectory#sync), save the
> values for later
> * Get a list of local files from ReplicatingDirectory#listAll before leaving
> ReplicatingDirectory#sync
> * Submit replication task (DirectoryReplicator) to scheduler thread
> * Compare local files to remote files, determine which remote files get
> deleted, and which need to get copied
> * Submit a thread to copy each file (one thead per file)
> * Submit a thread to delete each file (one thead per file)
> * Submit a "finalizer" thread. This thread waits on the previous two batches
> of threads to finish. Once finished, this thread generates a new
> "segments.gen" remotely (using the version and generation number previously
> read in).
> I have no idea where this would belong in the Lucene project, so i'll just
> attach the standalone class instead of a patch. It introduces dependencies on
> Hadoop core (and all the deps that brings with it).
