lib/Hadoop/HDFS/Command.pm  view on Meta::CPAN

This is a simple wrapper around the hdfs commandline to make them easier to
call from Perl and parse their output.

The interface is partially done at the moment (see the implemented wrappers
down below).

You can always use the WebHDFS to do similar operations instead of failling
back to the commandline. However there are several benefits of using the
cli; i) you'll end up with a single C<JVM> invocation, so the response
might be faster ii) Some functionality / endpoints might be buggy for WebHDFS
but might work with the cli (for example escaping certain values is broken
in some versions, but works with the cli).
