             Summary: Add easy method to install example files into sharelib
                 Key: OOZIE-2395
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-2395
             Project: Oozie
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: examples
    Affects Versions: trunk
            Reporter: Mike Grimes
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: trunk


Right now installing the oozie examples is cumbersome, and not very intuitive 
to new users, despite the fact that they are integral to a new user becoming 
familiar with how to construct workflows/coordinators/bundles.

Right now, in order to install all examples and have them be runnable right 
away the user has to (possibly) replace the jobTracker/YARN RM uri, as well as 
the headnode URI in each job.properties file (there are 20 or so different app 
examples). Also, in order to use coordinator/bundle examples the user must 
update a plethora of datetimes (although generating these in the examples could 
be considered out of scope and more difficult)

Personally, in my Bigtop with oozie 4.2.0 i'm using a script to replace all 
jobtracker and namenode uri's with ones passed in, or set in an 
install-oozie-examples-env.sh script. This allows me to quickly on cluster 
spin-up, install examples, and run them to verify oozies operability.

I'd like to open this to discussion of implementation details, as I'm not sure 
if this would be a change the Oozie community would be open to, or if anyone 
has any ideas as to the best way to implement this.
