CascadingExamples
Index of usage examples for Cascading.
Introduction
Details in using the examples provided as separate downloads.
Example Details
If Groovy scripting is more your style, see our Groovy syntax page.
Running
Two sample applications, with source are provided on the downloads page.
To give Cascading a quick whirl, download the cascading archive and one of the example applications. Untar them both into a new directory so that you have a 'cascading' and either 'loganalysis' or 'wordcount' directories in the same parent directory.
Next, you must initialize your local Hadoop environment. For example, call
export HADOOP_HOME=~/hadoop export PATH=$HADOOP_HOME/bin/:$PATH
where HADOOP_HOME points to the root of your Hadoop installation.
Finally, per the README.TXT file in your example application, call
ant jar hadoop jar ./build/example.jar args...
Note these examples work great with a cluster enabled. So if some files/directories don't show up in the current directory, check your HDFS user directory.
