Eclipse-based GUI: DFS explorer and basic Map/Reduce job launcher
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-516
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-516
Project: Hadoop
Issue Type: New Feature
Environment: Eclipse 3.2
JDK 1.5
Reporter: Frédéric Bertin
to increase productivity in our current project (which makes a heavy use of
Hadoop), we wrote a small Eclipse-based GUI application which basically
consists in 2 views:
* a HDFS explorer adapted from Eclipse filesystem explorer example.
For now, it includes the following features:
o classical tree-based browsing interface, with directory
content being detailed in a 3 columns table (file name, file
size, file type)
o refresh button
o delete file or directory (with confirm dialog): select files
in the tree or table and click the "Delete" button
o rename file or directory: simple click on the file in the
table, type the new name and validate
o open file with system editor: select the file in the table
and click "Open" button (works on Windows, not on Linux)
o internal drag & drop
o external drag & drop from the local filesystem to the HDFS
(the opposite doesn't work)
* a MapReduce *very* simple job launcher:
o select the job XML configuration file
o run the job
o kill the job
o visualize map and reduce progress with progress bars
o open a browser on the Hadoop job tracker web interface
INSTALLATION NOTES:
- Eclipse 3.2
- JDK 1.5
- import the archive in Eclipse
- copy your hadoop conf file (hadoop-default.xml in "src" folder) -> this step
should be moved in the GUI later
- right-click on the project and Run As -> Eclipse Application
- enjoy...
