[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-5123) Ant tasks for job submission

["Steve Loughran (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5123?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12667266#action_12667266 ] 

Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-5123:
----------------------------------------

Antunit probably doesnt integrate well with tests that need to set  up a mini cluster for the test run; use the "legacy" junit test case integration JARs instead.

> Ant tasks to make it easy to work with hadoop filesystem and submit jobs. 
> <submit> : uploads JAR, submits job as user, with various settings
> filesystem operations: mkdir, copyin, copyout, delete
>  -We could maybe use Ant1.7 "resources" here, and so use hdfs as a source or dest in Ant's own tasks
> # security. Need to specify user; pick up user.name from JVM as default?
> # cluster binding: namenode/job tracker (hostname,port) or url are all that is needed?
> #job conf: how to configure the job that is submitted? support a list of <property name="name" value="something"> children
> # testing. AntUnit to generate <junitreport> compatible XML files
> # Documentation. With an example using Ivy to fetch the JARs for the tasks and hadoop client.
> # Polling: ant task to block for a job finished?
