HDFS的Shell

调用文件系统(FS)Shell命令应使用 $HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop fs 的形式。

所有的FS Shell命令使用URI路径作为参数。

URI格式是scheme://authority/path。

对于HDFS，HDFS的scheme是hdfs，如hdfs://localhost:9000/   ， 对于本地，本地的scheme是file，如file://

其中，scheme和authority参数都是可选的，如果未加指定，就会使用配置中指定的默认scheme。

例如，/parent/child可以表示成hdfs://namenode:namenodePort/parent/child，或/parent/child(假设配置文件是namenode:namenodePort)

大多数FS Shell命令的行为和对应的Unix Shell命令类似。

• hdfs dfs -cat file:///file3 /user/hadoop/file4

Exit Code:

Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.

Chgrp【change group】

Usage: hdfs dfs -chgrp [-R] GROUP URI [URI ...]

Options

• The -R option will make the change recursively through the directory structure.

chmod

Usage: hdfs dfs -chmod [-R] <MODE[,MODE]... | OCTALMODE> URI [URI ...]

修改权限.

Options

• The -R option will make the change recursively through the directory structure.

chown

Usage: hdfs dfs -chown [-R] [OWNER][:[GROUP]] URI [URI ]

修改所有者.

Options

• The -R option will make the change recursively through the directory structure.

copyFromLocal

Usage: hdfs dfs -copyFromLocal <localsrc> URI

Similar to put command, except that the source is restricted to a local file reference.

Options:

• The -f option will overwrite the destination if it already exists.

copyToLocal

Usage: hdfs dfs -copyToLocal [-ignorecrc] [-crc] URI <localdst>

Similar to get command, except that the destination is restricted to a local file reference.

count

Usage: hdfs dfs -count [-q] [-h] <paths>

列出文件夹数量、文件数量、内容大小. The output columns with -count are: DIR_COUNT, FILE_COUNT, CONTENT_SIZE FILE_NAME

The output columns with -count -q are: QUOTA, REMAINING_QUATA, SPACE_QUOTA, REMAINING_SPACE_QUOTA, DIR_COUNT, FILE_COUNT, CONTENT_SIZE, FILE_NAME

The -h option shows sizes in human readable format.

Example:

• hdfs dfs -count hdfs://nn1.example.com/file1 hdfs://nn2.example.com/file2
• hdfs dfs -count -q hdfs://nn1.example.com/file1
• hdfs dfs -count -q -h hdfs://nn1.example.com/file1

Exit Code:

Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.

cp

Usage: hdfs dfs -cp [-f] [-p | -p[topax]] URI [URI ...] <dest>

复制文件(夹)，可以覆盖，可以保留原有权限信息

Options:

• The -f option will overwrite the destination if it already exists.
• The -p option will preserve file attributes [topx] (timestamps, ownership, permission, ACL, XAttr). If -p is specified with no arg, then preserves timestamps, ownership, permission. If -pa is specified, then preserves permission also because ACL is a super-set of permission. Determination of whether raw namespace extended attributes are preserved is independent of the -p flag.

Example:

• hdfs dfs -cp /user/hadoop/file1 /user/hadoop/file2
• hdfs dfs -cp /user/hadoop/file1 /user/hadoop/file2 /user/hadoop/dir

Exit Code:

Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.

du

Options:

• The -s option will result in an aggregate summary of file lengths being displayed, rather than the individual files.
• The -h option will format file sizes in a "human-readable" fashion (e.g 64.0m instead of 67108864)

Example:

• hdfs dfs -du /user/hadoop/dir1 /user/hadoop/file1 hdfs://nn.example.com/user/hadoop/dir1

Exit Code: Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.

Note: This command is deprecated. Instead use hdfs dfs -du -s.

expunge

Usage: hdfs dfs -expunge

清空回收站.

get

Usage: hdfs dfs -get [-ignorecrc] [-crc] <src> <localdst>

Copy files to the local file system. Files that fail the CRC check may be copied with the -ignorecrc option. Files and CRCs may be copied using the -crc option.

Example:

Options:

• -R: Recursively list the attributes for all files and directories.
• -n name: Dump the named extended attribute value.
• -d: Dump all extended attribute values associated with pathname.
• -e encoding: Encode values after retrieving them. Valid encodings are "text", "hex", and "base64". Values encoded as text strings are enclosed in double quotes ("), and values encoded as hexadecimal and base64 are prefixed with 0x and 0s, respectively.

Options:

• The -R option will return stat recursively through the directory structure.

For a file returns stat on the file with the following format:

permissions number_of_replicas userid groupid filesize modification_date modification_time filename

For a directory it returns list of its direct children as in Unix. A directory is listed as:

permissions userid groupid modification_date modification_time dirname

Example:

• hdfs dfs -ls /user/hadoop/file1

Exit Code:

Displays a "Not implemented yet" message.

mv

Usage: hdfs dfs -mv URI [URI ...] <dest>

Example:

• hdfs dfs -mv /user/hadoop/file1 /user/hadoop/file2
• hdfs dfs -mv hdfs://nn.example.com/file1 hdfs://nn.example.com/file2 hdfs://nn.example.com/file3 hdfs://nn.example.com/dir1

Exit Code:

Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.

put

Usage: hdfs dfs -put <localsrc> ... <dst>

rm

Usage: hdfs dfs -rm [-f] [-r|-R] [-skipTrash] URI [URI ...]

Delete files specified as args.

Options:

• The -f option will not display a diagnostic message or modify the exit status to reflect an error if the file does not exist.
• The -R option deletes the directory and any content under it recursively.
• The -r option is equivalent to -R.
• The -skipTrash option will bypass trash, if enabled, and delete the specified file(s) immediately. This can be useful when it is necessary to delete files from an over-quota directory.

Example:

Exit Code:

Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.

rmr

Sets Access Control Lists (ACLs) of files and directories.

Options:

• -b: Remove all but the base ACL entries. The entries for user, group and others are retained for compatibility with permission bits.
• -k: Remove the default ACL.
• -R: Apply operations to all files and directories recursively.
• -m: Modify ACL. New entries are added to the ACL, and existing entries are retained.
• -x: Remove specified ACL entries. Other ACL entries are retained.
• --set: Fully replace the ACL, discarding all existing entries. The acl_spec must include entries for user, group, and others for compatibility with permission bits.
• acl_spec: Comma separated list of ACL entries.

Exit Code:

Returns 0 on success and non-zero on error.

setfattr

Usage: hdfs dfs -setfattr -n name [-v value] | -x name <path>

Sets an extended attribute name and value for a file or directory.

Options:

• -b: Remove all but the base ACL entries. The entries for user, group and others are retained for compatibility with permission bits.
• -n name: The extended attribute name.
• -v value: The extended attribute value. There are three different encoding methods for the value. If the argument is enclosed in double quotes, then the value is the string inside the quotes. If the argument is prefixed with 0x or 0X, then it is taken as a hexadecimal number. If the argument begins with 0s or 0S, then it is taken as a base64 encoding.
• -x name: Remove the extended attribute.
• path: The file or directory.

Examples:

• hdfs dfs -setfattr -n user.myAttr -v myValue /file
• hdfs dfs -setfattr -n user.noValue /file
• hdfs dfs -setfattr -x user.myAttr /file

Exit Code:

Returns 0 on success and non-zero on error.

setrep

Usage: hdfs dfs -setrep [-R] [-w] <numReplicas> <path>

Changes the replication factor of a file. If path is a directory then the command recursively changes the replication factor of all files under the directory tree rooted at path.

Options:

• The -w flag requests that the command wait for the replication to complete. This can potentially take a very long time.
• The -R flag is accepted for backwards compatibility. It has no effect.

Example:

• hdfs dfs -setrep -w 3 /user/hadoop/dir1

Exit Code:

Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.

stat

Usage: hdfs dfs -stat URI [URI ...]

Returns the stat information on the path.

Example:

• hdfs dfs -stat path

Exit Code: Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.

tail

Usage: hdfs dfs -tail [-f] URI

Displays last kilobyte of the file to stdout.

Options:

• The -f option will output appended data as the file grows, as in Unix.

test

Usage: hdfs dfs -test -[ezd] URI

Options:

• The -e option will check to see if the file exists, returning 0 if true.
• The -z option will check to see if the file is zero length, returning 0 if true.
• The -d option will check to see if the path is directory, returning 0 if true.

Example:

• hdfs dfs -test -e filename

text

Usage: hdfs dfs -text <src>

Takes a source file and outputs the file in text format. The allowed formats are zip and TextRecordInputStream.

touchz

Usage: hdfs dfs -touchz URI [URI ...]

Example:

• hdfs dfs -touchz pathname

Exit Code: Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.
