Job Designer

The Job Designer lets you submit jobs to the Hadoop cluster, and it lets you "parameterize" these jobs so that other users may use them as well.

Currently, the Job Designer supports "streaming" and "jar" jobs. Note that the input files must already be uploaded to the cluster. When you hit the "play" (submit) button, Job Designer's backend server (called "jobsubd") will run the job on your behalf.

When you use the syntax "$parameter_name" in your job configuration, Hue will prompt for a value whenever you "play" this job.
