Jaimin D Jetly updated HDFS-2631: --------------------------------- Attachment: HDFS-2631.1.patch This is an initial patch of fuse-webhdfs contrib project. Work is under progress. you can review the code and read the README file for the installation . Project supports all directory level commands and limited file level commands like read (more), write (indirection >), append (>>), find. Other functions that could be implemented in the future is statfs , symlink , access. For now one needs to manually download libcurl and libjson libraries and configure+make (refer README). But I will get it done through ant in the next patch. > Rewrite fuse-dfs to use the webhdfs protocol > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-2631 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2631 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: contrib/fuse-dfs > Reporter: Eli Collins > Assignee: Jaimin D Jetly > Attachments: HDFS-2631.1.patch > > > We should port the implementation of fuse-dfs to use the webhdfs protocol. > This has a number of benefits: > * Compatibility - allows a single fuse client to work across server versions > * Works with both WebHDFS and Hoop since they are protocol compatible > * Removes the overhead related to libhdfs (forking a jvm) > * Makes it easier to support features like security -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
