Hi, I'm using the HBase Client API to connect to a remote cluster and do some operations. This project will certainly require hbase and hadoop-core jars. And my question is whether I should use 'java' command and handle all the dependencies (using maven shaded plugin, or set the classpath environment), or there's a magic utility command to handle all these for me?
Take map-redcue job for an instance. Typically the main class will extend Configured and implement Tool. The job will be executed by 'hadoop jar' command and all environment and hadoop-core dependency are at hand. This approach also handles the common command line parsing for me, and I can easily get an instance of Configuration by 'this.getConf()'; I'm wondering whether HBase provides the same utiliy command? Thanks, Jerry
