Hairong Kuang updated HADOOP-59:
--------------------------------
Attachment: commons-cli-2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
In the patch submitted above, the processing of general options are implemented
using commons CLI with a fix. The fix has not committed yet. So I attached the
jar here.
> support generic command-line options
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-59
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-59
> Project: Hadoop
> Type: Improvement
> Components: conf
> Versions: 0.2.0
> Reporter: Doug Cutting
> Assignee: Hairong Kuang
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.4.0
> Attachments: Tool.java, ToolBase.java, bashfile.patch,
> commons-cli-2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar, genericCommand.patch, toolbase.patch
>
> Hadoop commands should all support some common options. For example, it
> should be possible to specify the namenode, datanode, and, for that matter,
> any config option, in a generic way.
> This could be implemented with code like:
> public interface Tool extends Configurable {
> void run(String[] args) throws Exception;
> }
> public class ToolBase implements Tool extends Configured {
> public final void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
> Configuration conf = new Configuration();
> ... parse config options from args into conf ...
> this.configure(conf);
> this.run();
> }
> }
> public MyTool extends ExcecutableBase {
> public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
> new MyTool().main(args);
> }
> }
> The general command line syntax could be:
> bin/hadoop [generalOptions] command [commandOptions]
> Where generalOptions are things that ToolBase handles, and only the
> commandOptions are passed to Tool.run(). The most important generalOption
> would be '-D', which would define name/value pairs that are set in the
> configuration. This alone would permit folks to set the namenode, datanode,
> etc.
