HDFS Explorer

Hi all,

Hadoop HDFS command is good. But somehow it becomes hair-wired when we have a long arguments inputs. Those are error-prone and tedious to structure one. So with this notion of in mind, I just developed a wrapper script to facilitate this operation. Easy to install, easy to use too. Here is more descriptions and details about the tool.

Thank you.
