             Summary: HadoopFileSystem doesn't Support Recursive Globs (**)
                 Key: BEAM-6851
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-6851
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: io-java-hadoop
            Reporter: Kyle Winkelman


The LocalFileSystem supports recursive globs, **, through use of the [glob 
syntax|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/io/fileOps.html#glob] 
and it would be nice to similarly allow it in the HadoopFileSystem.

The FileSystem docs say:
{code:java}
All FileSystem implementations should support glob in the final hierarchical 
path component of ResourceIdT. This allows SDK libraries to construct file 
system agnostic spec. FileSystems can support additional patterns for 
user-provided specs.
{code}
This clearly points out that recursive globs aren't required but may be 
supported as an additional pattern for user-provided specs.
