> By default, hadoop streaming uses TAB as the separator in all places. However in some environments, user may want to use customized separators (e.g, ^A = \u0001).
> The separator logic in hadoop streaming is very convoluted. Here is a brief summary:
> InputFormat {
> KeyValueLineRecordReader.java:59:
> S1: String sepStr = job.get("key.value.separator.in.input.line", "\t");
> }
> Mapper {
> PipeMapper.java:88:
> S2: clientOut_.write('\t');
> Call mapper process
> PipeMapRed.java:124:
> S3: String mapOutputFieldSeparator = job_.get("stream.map.output.field.separator", "\t");
> PipeMapRed.java:128:
> this.numOfMapOutputKeyFields = job_.getInt("stream.num.map.output.key.fields", 1);
> }
> Reducer {
> PipeReducer.java:78:
> S4: clientOut_.write('\t');
> Call reducer process
> PipeMapRed.java:125:
> S5: String reduceOutputFieldSeparator = job_.get("stream.reduce.output.field.separator", "\t");
> PipeMapRed.java:129:
> this.numOfReduceOutputKeyFields = job_.getInt("stream.num.reduce.output.key.fields", 1);
> }
> OutputFormat {
> TextOuputFormat.java:112:
> S6: String keyValueSeparator = job.get("mapred.textoutputformat.separator", "\t");
> }
> Short-cuts:
> 1. In case we use "TextInputFormat", S1 and S2 are not used at all. Lines are directly feed into the mapper (through the value part of the key-value pair - keys, which are offsets, are directly ignored).
> 2. For jobs with no reducers, The "Reducer" step is skipped.
> We need to make S3 and S4 configurable, possibly under the following names for conformity:
> stream.map.input.field.separator
> stream.reduce.input.field.separator
> Then, by specifying: -jobconf key.value.separator.in.input.line=^A -jobconf stream.map.input.field.separator=^A -jobconf stream.map.output.field.separator=^A -jobconf stream.reducer.input.field.separator=^A -jobconf stream.reducer.output.field.separator=^A -jobconf mapred.textoutputformat.separator=^A, we will be able to use ^A instead of TAB in every place!
> Maybe hadoop streaming can also provide a single option to override these 6 options.
