stack commented on HADOOP-1913: ------------------------------- Thanks for sample and this version of the patch applies. I tried putting the above xml into a hbase-site.xml property value and it looks like the general parse fails: {code} 07/09/18 12:35:38 FATAL conf.Configuration: error parsing conf file: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.dom.DeferredElementImpl {code} Is your thinking that folks will build up an XML string in their job config. code rather than edit an hbase-site.xml to add per-column configuration? > [HBase] Build a Lucene index on an HBase table > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1913 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1913 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: contrib/hbase > Reporter: Ning Li > Priority: Minor > Attachments: build_table_index.patch, > build_table_index.take2.again.patch, build_table_index.take2.patch > > > This patch provides a Reducer class and other related classes which help to > build a Lucene index on an HBase table. The index build part is similar to > that of Nutch. > - Each row is modeled as a Lucene document: row key is indexed in its > untokenized form, column name-value pairs are Lucene field name-value pairs. > - IndexConf is used to configure various Lucene parameters, specify whether > to optimize an index and which columns to index and/or store, in tokenized or > untokenized form, etc. > - The number of reduce tasks decides the number of indexes (partitions). > The index(es) is stored in the output path of job configuration. > - The index build process is done in the reduce phase. Users can use the > map phase to join rows from different tables or to pre-parse/analyze column > content, etc. > - A junit test is added to test the build of an index on an HBase table > with an identity mapper. It also serves as an example on how to use the new > classes. > - BuildTableIndex is provided to help building an index on an HBase table. > It should be moved to examples package if HBase decides to have one. > This patch requires the inclusion of the Lucene library. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
