I noticed that there is a Pig JSON Loader (which might or might not be in piggbank). Could anyone confirm the existence or absence of a JSONToTuple UDF? (not a loader)
I am inspired by the UDF mentioned on Slide 23 here: http://www.slideshare.net/danharvey/hbase-at-mendeley doc = FOREACH rawdocs GENERATE DocumentProtobufBytesToTuple(protodoc) as DOC; My desire is to store a raw JSON doc in a cell in HBase and run pig queries against the tuples generated by the UDF. I used the HBase Loader already to get the cell-data, and now I need a JSON-deserializer. I would be willing to roll my own, (and contribute), but I figure I'd see if there was anything out there first. thanks, daniel
