Description

status

A JSON object containing the job status information. See the Hadoop documentation (Class JobStatus) for more information.

profile

A JSON object containing the job profile information. WebHCat passes along the information in the JobProfile object, which is subject to change from one Hadoop version to another. See the Hadoop documentation (API docs) for org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobProfile for more information.

id

The job ID.

parentId

The parent job ID.

percentComplete

The job completion percentage, for example "75% complete".

exitValue

The job's exit value.

user

User name of the job creator.

callback

The callback URL, if any.

completed

A string representing completed status of the process launched by the Launcher task. For example when a MapReduce job is submitted via WebHCat, the Launcher invokes a "hadoop jar" command and then when that process exits the completed string is set to "done". Note that this is not the same as the job status (see status).

userargs

A JSON object repesenting the argument names and values for the job submission request.

Example

Curl Command

% curl -s 'http://localhost:50111/templeton/v1/jobs/job_201112212038_0004?user.name=ctdean'
