public class FieldSelectionReducer<K,V>
extends Reducer<Text,Text,Text,Text>

This class implements a reducer class that can be used to perform field selections in a manner similar to unix cut. The input data is treated as fields separated by a user specified separator (the default value is "\t"). The user can specify a list of fields that form the reduce output keys, and a list of fields that form the reduce output values. The fields are the union of those from the key and those from the value. The field separator is under attribute "mapreduce.fieldsel.data.field.separator" The reduce output field list spec is under attribute "mapreduce.fieldsel.reduce.output.key.value.fields.spec". The value is expected to be like "keyFieldsSpec:valueFieldsSpec" key/valueFieldsSpec are comma (,) separated field spec: fieldSpec,fieldSpec,fieldSpec ... Each field spec can be a simple number (e.g. 5) specifying a specific field, or a range (like 2-5) to specify a range of fields, or an open range (like 3-) specifying all the fields starting from field 3. The open range field spec applies value fields only. They have no effect on the key fields. Here is an example: "4,3,0,1:6,5,1-3,7-". It specifies to use fields 4,3,0 and 1 for keys, and use fields 6,5,1,2,3,7 and above for values.

reduce

public void reduce(Text key,
                   Iterable<Text> values,

            throws IOException,
                   InterruptedException

Description copied from class: Reducer

This method is called once for each key. Most applications will define their reduce class by overriding this method. The default implementation is an identity function.

Overrides:

reduce in class Reducer<Text,Text,Text,Text>

Throws:

IOException
