Kay Kay commented on HBASE-2170: -------------------------------- | that would make it simple to pull those packages out into a 'hbase-client' Maven module (see HBASE-2099). We could start by getting that depending on hbase-core, and exclude all transitive dependencies but add add back in the specific ones needed (zookeeper et al). +1 . Along ryan's suggestion - it might need some minor refactoring to carve out the separate package , but it might worth the effort to focus on the releases of the server side. > hbase lightweight client library as a distribution > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-2170 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2170 > Project: Hadoop HBase > Issue Type: Wish > Reporter: Kay Kay > > As a wish - it would be nice to have a hbase client library (subset of the > current hbase distribution) that needs to be present at the hbase client > level to interact with the master/region servers. > From an app integration - users of hbase can just link against the client > library as opposed to getting the entire library to link against. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
