Romain Rigaux commented on HDFS-9366: ------------------------------------- This is great, thanks! Just talking from the point of view of and end user: # size (e.g. 1000 rows) startafter (e.g. start fetching size rows after 100) (FYI Oozie use 'len' and 'offset' for this parameters terminology wise, https://oozie.apache.org/docs/4.2.0/WebServicesAPI.html#Jobs_Information, maybe makese sense to unify) # Is HttpFs going to be updated in a follow-up too? (that way both WebHdfs and HttpFs are 100% compatible) > Webhdfs support set result size and cursor value in op=LISTSTATUS > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-9366 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9366 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Yong Zhang > Assignee: Yong Zhang > Attachments: HDFS-9366.002.patch, HDFS-9366.patch > > > webhdfs will return large result if HDFS directory with large number of > children. Some webui will not work or very slow in this scnario such as HUE. > webhdfs could support LISTSTATUS operation to get all children via more than > 1 request, each request only return a small size. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
