development environment for hadoop core
Hello -
I'm curious what Hadoop developers use for their day-to-day hacking on
Hadoop. I'm talking changes to the Hadoop libraries and daemons, and not
developing Map-Reduce jobs or using using the HDFS Client libraries to talk
to a filesystem from an application.
I've checked out Hadoop, made minor changes and built it with Maven, and
tracked down the resulting artifacts in a target/ directory that I could
deploy. Is this typically how a cloudera/hortonworks/mapr/etc dev works, or
are the IDEs more common?
I realize this sort of sounds like a dumb question, but I'm mostly curious
what I might be missing out on if I stay away from anything other than vim,
and not being entirely sure where maven might be caching jars that it uses
to build, and how careful I have to be to ensure that my changes wind up in
the right places without having to do a clean build every time.
Thanks!
-Erik

Hi,
I put some file include chinese into HDFS.
And read the file as "hadoop fs -cat /user/hive/warehouse/..." , is ok, I can see the chinese.
But when I open the table in hive, I can't read chinese........(english is ok )why?

Hi Erik,
When I started out on Hadoop development, I used to use emacs for most of
my development. I eventually "saw the light" and switched to eclipse with a
bunch of emacs keybindings - using an IDE is really handy in Java for
functions like "find callers of", quick navigation to types, etc. etags
gets you part of the way, but I'm pretty sold on eclipse at this point. The
other big advantage I found of Eclipse is that the turnaround time on
running tests is near-instant - make a change, hit save, and run a unit
test in a second or two, instead of waiting 20+sec for maven (even on a
non-clean build).
That said, for quick fixes or remote debugging work I fall back to vim
pretty quickly.

My setup ( I work from home)
# OS/X laptop w/ 30" monitor
# FTTC broadband, 55Mbit/s down, 15+ up -it's the upload bandwidth that
really helps development: http://www.flickr.com/photos/steve_l/8050751551/
# IntelliJ IDEA IDE, settings edited for a 2GB Heap
# Maven on the command line for builds
# I run a "mvn install -DskipTests" every morning to ensure that apache's
own -SNAPSHOT artifacts aren't pulled in.
# CentOS 6.3 VM for doing the full binary build & test, making my own RPMs,
etc.
# coffee.
One thing that annoys me is that I've got an airplay-driven hifi set up,
and during builds there's enough CPU/RAM load that the music has dropouts.
Whoever thought of streaming over UDP without an option for deeper
buffering clearly doesn't use maven.
What I am doing is moving my centos VM off the laptop and into rackspace
cloud. That saves RAM for the IDE, and as I'm testing things in the same
infrastructure, it gives me the ability to deploy artifacts at gigabit
rates. I just use git as a way of syncing source.
One thing I am debating -again on rackspace- is to set up Jenkins on
yet-another-VM, polling aggressively, and automatically running the full
test suite every half hour. That way, it does the full regression testing
on all changes on my branch, while I focus on the one or two tests that I
care about.
That's something I discussed a way back
https://docs.google.com/document/d/16v4SFYC6WSB-Y-B0Uo3IEhEhEN9pPYrtvhtR8KW9ouI/edit
-it's only now that I'm sitting down and really doing it -git & github
makes a difference as I can have my own personal branches for the CI
tooling to play with
Has anyone else tried anything like this

Hi Erik,
Eclipse can run junit tests very rapidly. If you want a shorter test
cycle, that's one way to get it.
There is also Maven-shell, which reduces some of the overhead of starting
Maven. But I haven't used it so I can't really comment.
cheers,
Colin

Thanks to everyone for their advice last week, it's been helpful.
You're spot-on that I'm new to Maven, but I'm a little confused as to what
the different targets/goals are best to use. Here's my scenario.
What I'd like to get working is the DataNodeCluster, which lives in the
tests.
Running it from hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/target as
'hadoop jar ./hadoop-hdfs-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT-tests.jar
org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.DataNodeCluster
-n 2'
blows up with a NPE inside of MiniDFSCluster - the offending line is
'dfsdir = conf.get(HDFS_MINIDFS_BASEDIR, null);' (line 2078 of
MiniDFSCluster.java)
I'm not worried about being able to figure out what's wrong (I'm pretty
sure it's that conf is still null when this gets called) - what I'm trying
to use this as is a way to understand what gets built when.
Just to check, I added a System.out.println one line before 2078 of
MiniDFSCluster, and recompiled from hadoop-common/hadoop-hdfs-project with
mvn package -DskipTests
Because I don't want to run all the tests.
This certainly compiles the codes - if I leave the semicolon off of my
change the compile fails, even with -DskipTests. However, it doesn't appear
to rebuild
target/hadoop-hdfs-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT/share/hadoop/hdfs/hadoop-hdfs-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT-tests.jar
- the timestamp is still the old version.
It _does_ copy
target/hadoop-hdfs-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT/share/hadoop/hdfs/hadoop-hdfs-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT-tests.jar
to target/hadoop-hdfs-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT-tests.jar, or at least otherwise
update the timestamp on target/hadoop-hdfs-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT-tests.jar (unless
it's copying or building it from somewhere else - but if it is, it's
picking up old versions of my code)
I only get an updated version if I ask for
mvn package -Pdist -DskipTests
Which is a 3 minute rebuild cycle, even for something as simple as changing
the text in my System.out.println. (Even just a mvn package -DskipTests
with no changes to any source code is a 40 second operation)
I haven't sat around and waited for 'mvn package' to run and fire off the
test suite. I don't know if that would result in an updated
hadoop-hdfs-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT-tests.jar
being built.
So, my question is:
- Is there a better maven target to use if I just want to update code in
MiniDFSCluster.java and run DataNodeCluster, all of which wind up in
-tests.jar? ('better' here means a shorter build cycle. I'm a terrible
programmer so finding errors quickly is a priority for me :)
- is it worth being concerned that 'mvn package' on what should be a no-op
takes as long as it does?
I'll sort out the NPE in Datanodecluster and file appropriate JIRAs. (This
is all on the trunk - git show-ref is
2fc22342f44055ae4a2b526408de7524bf1f9215 HEAD, so the trunk as of last
Wednesday)
Thanks!

I haven't built Hadoop yet myself. Your use of "a" in "a target/
directory" indicates you're also kind of new with Maven itself, as
that's the standard output folder for any Maven project. One of many
nice things about Maven is once you learn how to build one project with
it you pretty much know how to build any project with it, as
everything's standardized with it.
Probably best to stick with the command line for building and use
Eclipse for editing, to keep things simple, but don't forget the mvn
eclipse:eclipse command to set up Eclipse projects that you can
subsequently import into your Eclipse IDE:

Maven can detect changes (using mvn install instead of mvn clean
install), but I prefer doing clean builds. You can use the
-Dmaven.test.skip setting to speed up your "mvn clean installs" if you
don't wish to run the tests each time.

I use both vim and Eclipse (3.8.0~rc4-1 from Debian). I use git for
version control with a branch per JIRA. Most testing is done with
jUnit tests, I try to write a testcase to repro a bug before trying to
fix the bug. Sometimes for a particular bug I need to install
artifacts on a cluster (of VMs or physical machines) during the
edit-compile-debug cycle; in such cases I build with mvn and carefully
choose which artifacts need to be updated on the target cluster using
rsync to speed up the cycle.
It's pretty difficult to develop in Java without using Eclipse or
similar. Like Todd I stuck to my preferred editor environment for
several months but found the IDE crutch too useful to avoid entirely.
Luckily nowadays Eclipse and vim synchronize through the filesystem
pretty well (much better than 6-8 years ago); I haven't yet lost even
a single line of code due to "oh you edited the same file in two
editors and they overwrote one another"; both vim and Eclipse
carefully say "It was changed on disk! Oh Noes! What shall we do?".
You can run jUnit tests from either Eclipse or mvn, and I do both regularly.

Not quite an advance developer, but I learnt some shortcuts for my dev
cycle along the way.

I mostly stuck to vim for my editor, with a few exceptions (Eclipse is
great for
browsing class to class) & mvn eclipse:eclipse works great.
I end up doing mvn package -Pdist
That give you a hadoop-dist/target/hadoop-${version} to work from
>From then on, the mini-cluster is your friend.
http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/CLIMiniCluster.html
all I usually specify is -rmport 8032
Next thing I learnt was that for most of dev work, file:/// works
great instead of hdfs
for instance in hive, I could just give
-hiveconf fs.default.name=file://$(FS)/
-hiveconf hive.metastore.warehouse.dir=file://$(FS)/warehouse
(of course, substituting FS for something useful like /tmp/hive/)
and run my queries without worrying about HDFS overheads.
Using file:/// urls for map input and output occasionally simplifies
your debugging a lot.
So basically, you could run
./bin/hadoop jar
share/hadoop/mapreduce/hadoop-mapreduce-examples-*.jar wordcount
file:///usr/share/dict/words file:///tmp/run1
Or you could just use localhost:9000 in the minicluster if you really
want to test out the HDFS client ops.
Figuring out how to run hadoop in the non-cluster mode has been the
most produtivity inducing thing I've learnt.
Hope that helps.

find ~/.m2/ helps a bit, but occasionally when I do break the API of
something basic like Writable, I want to use my version of the hadoop
libs for that project.
So, this is a question I have for everyone else.
How do I change the hadoop version of an entire build, so that I can
name it something unique & use it in other builds in maven (-SNAPSHOT
doesn't cut it, since occasionally mvn will download the hadoop snap
poms from the remote repos).
Cheers,
