Travis Crawford created HCATALOG-434:
----------------------------------------
Summary: Package HCatalog pig support as a separate jar
Key: HCATALOG-434
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-434
Project: HCatalog
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Travis Crawford
HCatalog's pig support should be moved into a separate jar.
DETAILS:
One of HCatalog's major goals is making the HiveMetaStore accessible to other
processing frameworks (pig for example). If we bundle everything inside a
single hcatalog.jar it will have a large number of processing framework
dependencies.
For example, let's say HCatalog has the core classes, and adaptors for pig &
scalding all bundled inside a single hcatalog.jar. The maven dependencies will
include both pig & scalding. Projects integrating with hcat either end up with
way more dependencies than necessary, or they need to pick & choose which
dependencies to include in their project.
Packaging pig support as a separate jar allows users to get the pig support
without dependencies from other processing frameworks.
