Alejandro Abdelnur commented on OOZIE-654: ------------------------------------------ * please trim the license notice trailing spaces * please add a comment in the pom.xml exclusion what versions of Hadoop uber-jars in HDFS are supported (1.2.0+ & 2.2.0+) * the uberjar should also be set in the launcher config, as the client invocation may need the classes/jars in the uberjar. * if the uberjar path is relative, it should resolve to the WF app. * if the uberjar path is absolute (with no authority), it should resolve to the <name-node> (which must always be present, right). If I read the code correctly, I think you are doing this already. > Provide a way to use 'uber' jars with Oozie MR actions > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: OOZIE-654 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-654 > Project: Oozie > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Harsh J > Assignee: Robert Kanter > Priority: Minor > Attachments: OOZIE-654.patch, OOZIE-654.patch > > > Right now, say if you have a custom MR code in a jar that has a {{lib/}} > folder inside which carries more dependent jars (a structure known as 'uber' > jars), and you submit the job via a regular 'hadoop jar' command, these > lib/*.jars get picked up by the framework because the supplied jar is > specified explicitly via conf.setJarByClass or conf.setJar. That is, if this > user uber jar goes to the JT as the mapred.jar, then it is handled by the > framework properly and the lib/*.jars are all considered and placed on the > classpath. > Distributed cache jars do not have this effect, and that is cause the MR > framework does not consider them as uber jars and does not extract and use > their internal lib/ directories. > We should have a way in oozie to let users promote one of their jars as uber > jars, as an option. > Proposal: Have an optional oozie-prefixed config, or an optional element in > the MR action XML, that lets user specify what class should be loaded to be > set as setJarByClass(...). This will have to be a class available in the > higher level of the uber jar (not under lib/) but can be any class inside the > targeted jar really (just not from a jar under lib/). We then set this as > jobConf.setJarByClass(loadedCls), and then run the job. > Thoughts? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
