as input
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1909?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15833283#comment-15833283 ]
Suraj Acharya commented on AVRO-1909:
-------------------------------------
The code looks good to me.
[~wallin] i know this seems like a late request, so feel free to open another issue, but is it possible for you to write a test case around this?
Also, Ill try to get someone to merge the changes in the next few days.
> Make concat tool handle directories as input

> Key: AVRO-1909
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1909
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: java
> Affects Versions: 1.8.1
> Reporter: Sebastian Wallin
> Priority: Minor
>
> I'm having a situation where I want to concatenate thousands of files in a directory. Currently this generates `Argument list too long` when the shell tries to expand into a list of files.
> It would be great for the `concat` tool to handle directories as input for use cases like this, as well as being consistent with the `cat` tool
> There is a similar issue filed (AVRO-1787), which requests both directories and glob patters to be handled. IMHO it would be enough to make the `concat` tool handle directories, as a start. It would also require a lot less code to be changed.
