Quick steps to compile it:
- Compile it adapting the different pom.xml to your Hadoop distro versions. Use "mr2" profile for MR2 versions.
mvn clean install -DskipTests
The default version compiles the distribution for MR2 versions (MapReduce 2), the most common use case. Other available maven profiles are:
- mr1: MarReduce 1 version
- cdh5: Cloudera CDH5 version
For example, for compiling for CDH5 version you have to launch:
mvn clean install -DskipTests -Pcdh5
If you need to compile against a particular Hadoop version, you'll need to modify the different pom.xml acordingly. You can use the cdh5 profile as reference.
- Once compiled you'll find the distribution binaries are at file assembly/target/splout-distribution-*.tar.gz ready for being installed.
