Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-3923:
--------------------------------------
bq. I found a blog post from two years ago, but it doesn't cover anything about
KeywordExecutable.
KeywordExecutable is the Google AutoService stuff that [~ctubbsii] wired up for
most (all?) of the `accumulo <foo>` commands. The interface defines the mapping
from "<foo>" to some class "org.apache.accumulo.core.Foo" to run. IIRC, you
don't need to know anything else about how it works. Just do the minimal
installation using the local filesystem (accumulo-start.jar) and put everything
else into hdfs (or any other VFS compatible filesystem) and running
aforementioned command ({{accumulo classpath}}) should function. The problem
was that ServiceLoader (used by Google's AutoService) wasn't finding the
service definition files that were stored on the jars being accessed via VFS.
Does that help?

> Trying to make the VFS classloading stuff work and it doesn't seem like
> ServiceLoader is finding any of the KeywordExecutable implementations.
> Best I can tell after looking into this, VFSClassLoader (created by
> AccumuloVFSClassLoader) has all of the jars listed as resources, but when
> ServiceLoader tries to find the META-INF/services definitions, it returns
> nothing, and thus we think the keyword must be a class name. Seems like a
> commons-vfs bug.
