A few of the Hadoop, NoSQL, Web & Linux tools I've written over the years. All programs have --help to list the available options.

For many more tools see PyTools and the Advanced Nagios Plugins Collection which contains many more Hadoop, NoSQL and Linux/Web tools.

git clone https://github.com/harisekhon/tools
cd tools
make

The 'make' command will initialize my library submodule and use 'sudo' to install the required system packages and CPAN modules. If you want more control over what is installed you must follow the Manual Setup section instead.

All programs come with a --help switch which includes a program description and the list of command line options.

Some common options also support optional environment variables for convenience to reduce repeated --switch usage or to hide them from being exposed in the process list. These are indicated in the --help descriptions in brackets next to each option eg. $HOST or more specific ones with higher precedence like $AMBARI_HOST, $SOLR_HOST, $ELASTICSEARCH_HOST etc.

• hive-to-elasticsearch.pl - bulk indexes structured Hive tables in Hadoop to Elasticsearch clusters - includes support for Kerberos, Hive partitioned tables with selected partitions, selected columns, index creation with configurable sharding, index aliasing and optimization
• scrub.pl - anonymizes your configs / logs for pasting to online forums, Apache Jira tickets etc. Replaces hostnames/domains/FQDNs, email addresses, IP + MAC addresses, Kerberos principals, Cisco/Juniper passwords/shared keys and SNMP strings, as well as taking a configuration file of your Name/Company/Project/Database/Tables as regex to be able to also easily cover things like table naming conventions etc. Each replacement is replaced with a placeholder token indicating what was replaced (eg. <fqdn>, <password>, <custom>), and there is even an --ip-prefix switch to leave the last IP octect to aid in cluster debugging to still see differentiated nodes communicating with each other to compare configs and log communications
• solr_cli.pl - Solr command line tool with shortcuts under solr/ which make it much easier and quicker to use the Solr APIs instead of always using long tedious curl commands. Supports a lot of environments variables and tricks to allow for minimal typing when administering a Solr/SolrCloud cluster via the Collections and Cores APIs
• sqlcase.pl / *case.pl - fixes capitalization of keywords in files or stdin for SQL (Hive, Impala, Cassandra CQL, Couchbase N1QL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Apache Drill, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle), Pig Latin, Neo4j and Docker. More specific *case.pl command calls limit case rewriting to the targeted platform for tighter control to avoid recasing things that may be keywords in other SQL[-like] dialects. Primarily written to help clean up docs and SQL scripts.
• watch_url.pl - watches a given url, outputting status code and optionally selected output, useful for debugging web farms behind load balancers and seeing the distribution to different servers (tip: set a /hostname handler to return which server you're hitting for each request in real-time)
• watch_nginx_stats.pl - watches nginx stats via the HttpStubStatusModule module
• diffnet.pl - print net line additions/removals from diff / patch files or stdin
• java_show_classpath.pl - shows java classpaths of a running Java program in a sane way
• datameer-config-git.pl - revision controls Datameer configurations from API to Git
• ibm-bigsheets-config-git.pl - revision controls IBM BigSheets configurations from API to Git
• ambari_freeipa_kerberos_setup.pl - Automates Hadoop cluster security Kerberos setup of FreeIPA principals and keytab distribution to the cluster nodes. Designed for Hortonworks HDP but now that other vendors such as IBM and Pivotal are standarizing on Ambari it should work the same for those distributions as well.

Enter the tools directory and run git submodule init and git submodule update to fetch my library repo and then install the CPAN modules as mentioned further down:

git clone https://github.com/harisekhon/tools
cd tools
git submodule init
git submodule update

Then proceed to install the CPAN modules below by hand.

Install the following CPAN modules using the cpan command, use sudo if you're not root:

sudo cpan JSON LWP::Simple LWP::UserAgent Term::ReadKey Text::Unidecode Time::HiRes XML::LibXML XML::Validate 

You're now ready to use these programs.

Strict validations include host/domain/FQDNs using TLDs which are populated from the official IANA list. This is done via my Lib submodule - see there for details on configuring this to permit custom TLDs like .local or .intranet (both supported by default).

Run make update. This will git pull and then git submodule update which is necessary to pick up corresponding library updates.

If you update often and want to just quickly git pull + submodule update but skip rebuilding all those dependencies each time then run make update-no-recompile (will miss new library dependencies - do full make update if you encounter issues).

Patches, improvements and even general feedback are welcome in the form of GitHub pull requests and issue tickets.

PyTools - programs for Hadoop, Spark, Pig, Elasticsearch, Solr, Linux CLI etc. written in Python / Jython

The Advanced Nagios Plugins Collection - 220+ programs for Nagios monitoring your Hadoop & NoSQL clusters. Covers every Hadoop vendor's management API and every major NoSQL technology (HBase, Cassandra, MongoDB, Elasticsearch, Solr, Riak, Redis etc.) as well as traditional Linux and infrastructure.

Perl Lib - my personal Perl library leveraged in this repo as a submodule

PyLib - Python port of the above library

Spark => Elasticsearch - Scala application to index from Spark to Elasticsearch. Used to index data in Hadoop clusters or local data via Spark standalone. This started as a Scala Spark port of pig-text-to-elasticsearch.pig from my PyTools repo.
