pywebhdfs 0.4.1
PyWebHDFS is a Python wrapper for the Hadoop WebHDFS REST API.
Many of the current Python HDFS clients rely on Hadoop Streaming which
requires Java to be installed on the local machine. The other option for
interacting with HDFS is to use the WebHDFS REST API. The purpose of
this project is to simplify interactions with the WebHDFS API. The
PyWebHdfs client will implement the exact functions available in the
WebHDFS REST API and behave in a manner consistent with the API.
$ pip install pywebhdfs
The initial release provides for basic WebHDFS file and directory
operations including:
Create and Write to a File
Append to a File
Open and Read a File
Make a Directory
Rename a File/Directory
Delete a File/Directory
Status of a File/Directory
Checksum of a File
List a Directory
Get/Set/List/Delete Extended Attributes (Requires Hadoop 2.5.x+)
