Mortar Development Framework

Mortar is a platform as a service for Hadoop. With Mortar, you can run jobs on Hadoop using Apache Spark and Python without any special training.

The Mortar Development Framework lets you develop Mortar Hadoop jobs directly on your local computer without installing any Hadoop libraries. Lots more info can be found on the Mortar wiki.

Setup

Dependencies

  • Git 1.7.7 or later
  • Ruby 1.8.7 or later
  • Gem (included with Ruby 1.9.2+)

Installation

sudo gem install mortar --bindir /usr/local/bin

Development

To develop on the gem, install the bundle, and then use bundle exec to run mortar:

gem install bundler
bundle install

If you want to run the modified mortar from a different directory (e.g. from dd-analytics), you need to do it like this:

BUNDLE_GEMFILE="/path/to/mortar/Gemfile" bundle exec mortar

Tests

You can run all the RSpec tests with rake:

rake spec

To run tests for a single file using:

rspec path/to/test_file
