Tom White commented on WHIRR-220:
---------------------------------
Thanks for the new patch Andrei. I'm not sure about adding the HttpRequest to
the Configuration object. I think we should avoid adding complex objects to
configuration (even though it's only used internally), since configurations
should be easily serialized. How about having the cluster action handlers
upload the tarball, and add the retrieve statement to the statement list? The
blobstore container name can be added to the configuration (as a string), and
deleted on teardown.
A few other comments:
* TemporaryBlobStore#uploadLocalFiles will upload anything whose value begins
with "file://". We should really only upload known artifacts, governed by key.
This would not be a problem with the approach described above.
* Unless there's a strong reason to do it here, it might be simpler to move
InstanceTemplate to a top-level class in a separate JIRA.
* Add the new blobstore files in ClusterSpec to its equals, hashCode and
toString methods.

> If the installation tarball URL is a file:// URL then Whirr could upload it
> to a blobstore and automatically download it onto the instances before
> running the install script. This change would make it very easy to test
> development versions of Hadoop, or other services.
