[10:59:17] <ecapriolo> noland: et all. Do you want to talk about hive in maven? [11:01:06] smonchi [~ ro...@host34-189-dynamic.23-79-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has quit IRC: Quit: ... 'cause there is no patch for human stupidity ... [11:10:04] <noland> ecapriolo: yeah that sounds good to me! [11:10:22] <noland> I saw you created the jira but haven't had time to look [11:10:32] <ecapriolo> So I found a few things [11:10:49] <ecapriolo> In common there is one or two testats that actually fork a process :) [11:10:56] <ecapriolo> and use build.test.resources [11:11:12] <ecapriolo> Some serde, uses some methods from ql in testing [11:11:27] <ecapriolo> and shims really needs a separate hadoop test shim [11:11:32] <ecapriolo> But that is all simple stuff [11:11:47] <ecapriolo> The biggest problem is I do not know how to solve shims with maven [11:11:50] <ecapriolo> do you have any ideas [11:11:52] <ecapriolo> ? [11:13:00] <noland> That one is going to be a challenge. It might be that in that section we have to drop down to ant [11:14:44] <noland> Is it a requirement that we build both the .20 and .23 shims for a "package" as we do today? [11:16:46] <ecapriolo> I was thinking we can do it like a JDBC driver [11:16:59] <ecapriolo> Se separate out the interface of shims [11:17:22] <ecapriolo> And then at runtime we drop in a driver implementing [11:17:34] Wertax [~wer...@wolfkamp.xs4all.nl] has quit IRC: Remote host closed the connection [11:17:36] <ecapriolo> That or we could use maven's profile system [11:18:09] <ecapriolo> It seems that everything else can actually link against hadoop-0.20.2 as a provided dependency [11:18:37] <noland> Yeah either would work. The driver method would probably require use to use ant build both the drivers? [11:18:44] <noland> I am a fan of mvn profiles [11:19:05] <ecapriolo> I was thinking we kinda separate the shim out into its own project,, not a module [11:19:10] <ecapriolo> to achive that jdbc thing [11:19:27] <ecapriolo> But I do not have a solution yet, I was looking to farm that out to someone smart...like you :) [11:19:33] <noland> :) [11:19:47] <ecapriolo> All I know is that we need a test shim because HadoopShim requires hadoop-test jars [11:20:10] <ecapriolo> then the Mini stuff is only used in qtest anyway [11:20:48] <ecapriolo> Is this something you want to help with? I was thinking of spinning up a github [11:20:50] <noland> I think that the separate projects would work and perhaps nicely. [11:21:01] <noland> Yeah I'd be interested in helping! [11:21:17] <noland> But I am going on vacation starting next week for about 10 days [11:21:27] <ecapriolo> Ah cool where are you going? [11:21:37] <noland> Netherlands [11:21:42] <noland> Biking around and such [11:23:52] <noland> The one thing I was thinking about with regards to a branch is keeping history. We'll want to keep history for the files but AFAICT svn doesn't understand git mv. [11:24:16] Wertax [~wer...@wolfkamp.xs4all.nl] has joined #hive [11:31:19] jeromatron [~text...@host90-152-1-162.ipv4.regusnet.com] has quit IRC: Quit: My MacBook Pro has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz… [11:35:49] <ecapriolo> noland: Right I do not play to suggest that we will do this in git [11:36:11] <ecapriolo> I just see that we are going to have to hack stuff up and it is not the type of work that lends itself well to branches. [11:36:17] <noland> Ahh ok [11:36:56] <ecapriolo> Once we come up with a solution for the shims, and we have something that can reasonably build and test hive we can figure out how to apply that to a branch/trunk [11:36:58] <noland> yeah so just do a POC on github and then implement on svn [11:37:05] <noland> cool [11:37:29] <ecapriolo> Along the way we can probably find things that we can do like that common test I found and other minor things [11:37:41] <noland> sounds good [11:37:50] <ecapriolo> Those we can likely just commit into the current trunk and I will file issues for those now [11:37:58] <noland> cool [11:38:41] <ecapriolo> But yea man. I just cant take the project as it is now [11:38:51] <ecapriolo> in eclipse everytime I touch a file it rebuilds everything! [11:38:53] <ecapriolo> Its like WTF [11:39:09] <ecapriolo> Running one tests takes like 3 minutes [11:39:12] <ecapriolo> its out of control [11:39:23] <noland> LOL [11:39:29] <noland> I agree 110% [11:39:32] <ecapriolo> eclipse was not always like that I am not sure how the hell it happened [11:39:51] <noland> The eclipse sep thing is so harmful [11:40:08] <noland> dep thing that is [11:40:12] <ecapriolo> I mean command line ant was always bad, but you used to be able to work in eclipse without having to rebuild everything every change/test [11:40:39] <noland> Yeah the first thing I do these days is disable the ant builder [11:40:52] <ecapriolo> Ow... I did not really know that was a thing [11:40:55] <noland> it starts compiling while you are still working and blocks for minutes [11:41:02] <ecapriolo> Right that is what I mean [11:41:11] <ecapriolo> Everyone has like 10 hacks to work on the project [11:41:14] <noland> yeah you can remove it in project…one sec [11:41:17] <ecapriolo> perm gen [11:41:20] <ecapriolo> ant builder [11:41:32] <noland> project -> properties -> builders [11:41:34] <ecapriolo> hive does not build offline anymore [11:41:37] <noland> yeah [11:41:47] <ecapriolo> Im not sure when this stuff went bad, but it has gotten really really bad [11:42:09] <ecapriolo> Also what I plan on doing is stripping out non-essentials [11:42:25] <ecapriolo> like serde has all this thrift and avro stuff to support custom formats [11:42:30] <ecapriolo> that is going into its own module [11:42:43] <ecapriolo> Going to rip out all the udfs accept between and or. [11:43:50] <noland> yeah it'd be nice to have those items in their own modules so you can just build/test them when you want [11:44:12] <ecapriolo> hbase zookeeper locking [11:44:31] Wertax [~wer...@wolfkamp.xs4all.nl] has quit IRC: Remote host closed the connection [11:44:44] <noland> yeah for sure [11:45:04] <noland> I think the default for testing should be the in process locking [11:45:10] <ecapriolo> Absolutely. [11:45:40] <ecapriolo> The other issue I want to tackle is hive-exec.jar [11:45:54] <ecapriolo> I want to jar-jar all the dependencies. [11:46:46] <ecapriolo> I run into to many conflicts with log4j and guava, and commons-utils all those things need to be packaged into non-conflicting packages [11:46:58] <noland> I haven't looked at how we build that yet but I agree it'd be nice if we could jar-jar things like guava [11:47:12] <noland> so we can actually use them on server side [11:47:16] <ecapriolo> We dont really need quava. its probably just used for one tiny thing [11:47:43] <ecapriolo> People are forgetting/do not understand that hive-exec needs to get sent via the distributed cache [11:47:57] <noland> Wen we implement range joins they have a RangeMap that we'll need. [11:47:57] <ecapriolo> so making it hulkingly fat just slows everything down [11:48:11] <noland> Do we ship it every time? [11:48:25] <noland> Cause we only have to ship it once per version of the jar. [11:48:42] <ecapriolo> Recently you need the jackson jars on the auxlib as well [11:48:46] <ecapriolo> hive will not work without it [11:49:11] <ecapriolo> People are just focused feature-feature-feature...bigger...bigger bigger [11:49:24] rubensayshi [drakie@nat/hyves.nl/x-uxywnflkbberbzhq] has quit IRC: Quit: Leaving [11:49:27] <noland> yeah maven modules will definitely help us understand who depends on what. [11:49:28] <ecapriolo> Next up kyro [11:49:51] <noland> I agree there is a lot of tech debt that needs paying [11:50:30] <ecapriolo> So those are all the high level things I want to tackle [11:50:59] <ecapriolo> shims, general cleanup, break out non-essential code, build a better non conflicting hive-exec jar [11:51:10] <noland> That sounds good. Once we hack on github for a while it'd be nice to develop a brief high level plan on how to implement [11:51:26] <ecapriolo> Also get maven artifacts with correct depencency scopes like provided etc [11:51:40] <ecapriolo> Right now pulling a hive jar from maven is like pulling in the world [11:52:08] bvanhoy [~Adium@64.124.34.34] has joined #hive On Thu, Aug 15, 2013 at 11:14 PM, Edward Capriolo <edlinuxg...@gmail.com>wrote: > I have opened https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5107 because I > am growing tired of how long hive's build take. > > I have started playing with this by creating a simple multi-module project > and copying stuff as I go.
