We have files in HDFS with raw logs, each individual log is a line as these logs are line separated.
Our requirement is that to add a text (' 12345' for e.g. ) by the end of every log in these files ... using pig / hadoop command / or any other map reduce based tool.
Please advice
Thanks

Load the files where each log entry is loaded into one field i.e. line:chararray and use CONCAT to add the text to each line.Store it into new log file.If you want the individual files then you will have to parameterize the script to load each file and store into a new file instead of wildcard load.
Log = LOAD '/path/wildcard/*.log' USING TextLoader(line:chararray);
Log_Text = FOREACH Log GENERATE CONCAT(line,'Your Text') as newline;
STORE Log_Text INTO /path/NewLog.log';
If your files aren't extremely large, you can do that with a single shell command.
hdfs dfs -cat /user/hdfs/logfile.log | sed 's/$/12345/g' |\
hdfs dfs -put - /user/hdfs/newlogfile.txt

I have file stored on HDFS and I need to get its size. I used the following line at the command prompt to get the file size
hadoop fs -du -s train.csv | awk '{{s+=$1}} END {{printf s}}
I know that Hadoop stores duplicates of files decided by the replication factor. So when I run the line above, is the returned size the file size time the replication factor or just the file size?
From Hadoop documentation:
The du returns three columns with the following format:
size disk_space_consumed_with_all_replicas full_path_name
https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/FileSystemShell.html
As you can see the first column is size of file, while second column is space consumed including replicas.
In a cluster of hdfs, i receive multiple files on a daily basis which can be of 3 types :
1) product_info_timestamp
2) user_info_timestamp
3) user_activity_timestamp
The number of files received can be of any number but they will belong to one of these 3 categories only.
I want to merge all the files(after checking whether they are less than 100mb) belonging to one category into a single file.
for eg: 3 files named product_info_* should be merged into one file named product_info.
How do i achieve this?
You can use getmerge toachieve this, but the result will be stored in your local node (edge node), so you need to be sure you have enough space there.
hadoop fs -getmerge /hdfs_path/product_info_* /local_path/product_inf
You can move them back to hdfs with put
hadoop fs -put /local_path/product_inf /hdfs_path
You can use hadoop archive (.har file) or sequence file. It is very simple to use - just google "hadoop archive" or "sequence file".
Another set of commands along the similar lines as suggested by #SCouto
hdfs dfs -cat /hdfs_path/product_info_* > /local_path/product_info_combined.txt
hdfs dfs -put /local_path/product_info_combined.txt /hdfs_path/
I have the multiple text files.
The total size of them exceeds the largest disk size available to me (~1.5TB)
A spark program reads a single input text file from HDFS. So I need to combine those files into one. (I cannot re-write the program code. I am given only the *.jar file for execution)
Does HDFS have such a capability? How can I achieve this?
What I understood from your question is you want to Concatenate multiple files into one. Here is a solution which might not be the most efficient way of doing it but it works. suppose you have two files: file1 and file2 and you want to get a combined file as ConcatenatedFile
.Here is the script for that.
hadoop fs -cat /hadoop/path/to/file/file1.txt /hadoop/path/to/file/file2.txt | hadoop fs -put - /hadoop/path/to/file/Concatenate_file_Folder/ConcatenateFile.txt
Hope this helps.
HDFS by itself does not provide such capabilities. All out-of-the-box features (like hdfs dfs -text * with pipes or FileUtil's copy methods) use your client server to transfer all data.
In my experience we always used our own written MapReduce jobs to merge many small files in HDFS in distributed way.
So you have two solutions:
Write your own simple MapReduce/Spark job to combine text files with
your format.
Find already implemented solution for such kind of
purposes.
About solution #2: there is the simple project FileCrush for combining text or sequence files in HDFS. It might be suitable for you, check it.
Example of usage:
hadoop jar filecrush-2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar crush.Crush -Ddfs.block.size=134217728 \
--input-format=text \
--output-format=text \
--compress=none \
/input/dir /output/dir 20161228161647
I had a problem to run it without these options (especially -Ddfs.block.size and output file date prefix 20161228161647) so make sure you run it properly.
You can do a pig job:
A = LOAD '/path/to/inputFiles' as (SCHEMA);
STORE A into '/path/to/outputFile';
Doing a hdfs cat and then putting it back to hdfs means, all this data is processed in the client node and will degradate your network
How to move the files from local disk to HDFS using Spring XD.
I do not want contents , but to move whole file for archival which saves the file with original name and content.
Here is what i have tried
stream create --name fileapple --definition "file --mode=ref --dir=/Users/dev/code/open/learnspringxd/input --pattern=apple*.txt | WHATTODOHERE"
I can see now with reference the file names with full path are made available , how to move that to HDFS.
You might want to check this which imports data from files to HDFS as a batch job and check if that fits your requirement. You can also check file | hdfs as a stream if that works for you.
example like below will load the file from data folder to HDFS and save the file by date folders(if there are multi records with different date) which by the record column named LastModified, the data file is a json file separate by lines.
file --mode=ref --dir=/Users/dev/code/open/learnspringxd/input --pattern=apple*.txt | hdfs --directory=/user/file_folder --partitionPath=path(dateFormat('yyyy-MM-dd',#jsonPath(payload,'$.LastModified'),'yyyy-MM-dd')) --fileName=output_file_name_prefix --fsUri=hdfs://HDFShostname.company.com:8020 --idleTimeout=30000
Background:
I have some gzip files in a HDFS directory. These files are named in the format yyyy-mm-dd-000001.gz, yyyy-mm-dd-000002.gz and so on.
Aim:
I want to build a hive script which produces a table with the columns: Column 1 - date (yyyy-mm-dd), Column 2 - total file size.
To be specific, I would like to sum up the sizes of all of the gzip files for a particular date. The sum will be the value in Column 2 and the date in Column 1.
Is this possible? Are there any in-built functions or UDFs that could help me with my use case?
Thanks in advance!
A MapReduce job for this doesn't seem efficient since you don't actually have to load any data. Plus, doing this seems kind of awkward in Hive.
Can you write a bash script or python script or something like that to parse the output of hadoop fs -ls? I'd imagine something like this:
$ hadoop fs -ls mydir/*gz | python datecount.py | hadoop fs -put - counts.txt
