org.apache.hadoop.chukwa.datacollection.adaptor
Class DirTailingAdaptor

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.apache.hadoop.chukwa.datacollection.adaptor.AbstractAdaptor
      extended by org.apache.hadoop.chukwa.datacollection.adaptor.DirTailingAdaptor
All Implemented Interfaces:
Runnable, Adaptor

public class DirTailingAdaptor
extends AbstractAdaptor
implements Runnable

Explore a whole directory hierarchy, looking for files to tail. DirTailingAdaptor will not try to start tailing a file more than once, if the file hasn't been modified in the interim. Offset param is used to track last finished scan. Mandatory first parameter is a directory with an optional unix style file filter. Mandatory second parameter is the name of an adaptor to start. If the specified directory does not exist, the DirTailer will continue running, and will start tailing if the directory is later created.

public void start(long offset)
           throws AdaptorException
Specified by:
start in class AbstractAdaptor
Throws:
AdaptorException

run

public void run()
Specified by:
run in interface Runnable

getCurrentStatus

public String getCurrentStatus()
Description copied from interface: Adaptor
Return the adaptor's state Should not include class name or byte offset, which are written by caller. The datatype should, however, be written by this method.

Specified by:
getCurrentStatus in interface Adaptor
Returns:
the adaptor state as a string

parseArgs
