------------------------------------
Summary: Add co-processor support for app packages
Key: SLIDER-773
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLIDER-773
Project: Slider
Issue Type: Bug
Components: app-package, client
Affects Versions: Slider 0.60
Reporter: Sumit Mohanty
Assignee: Sumit Mohanty
Priority: Critical
Fix For: Slider 0.70
It is typical for applications to allow plugins/co-processors that are
essentially a set of additional jar files in the classpath and optionally a set
of config files or config changes.
Current, slider app packages can handle additional config changes/entries very
well. Additional configs files can be added as well but it is not easy if the
config files include parameters that need to be resolved by the agent. This
requires app package changes. Dropping additional jar files into the class path
is not easy and requires app package changes.
It is not efficient to modify the app package to support such plugins. App
packaging and create command should be modified such that the user can
dynamically specify additional jars, config files, configs etc.
Specific scenarios are modifying HBase to add support for Phoenix or Ranger.
