-------------------------------
Summary: Pig's register command should support automatic fetching
of jars from repo.
Key: PIG-4417
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-4417
Project: Pig
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Akshay Rai
Currently Pig's register command takes a local path to a dependency jar .
This clutters the local file-system as users may forget to remove this jar
later.
It would be nice if Pig supported a Gradle like notation to download the jar
from a repository.
Ex: At the top of the Pig script a user could add
register '<group>:<module>:<version>';
It should be backward compatible and should support a local file path if so
desired.
