Method Detail

### createRecordReader

    public RecordReader<K,V> createRecordReader(InputSplit split,
                                                TaskAttemptContext context)
                                         throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `InputFormat`
  Create a record reader for a given split. The framework will call `RecordReader.initialize(InputSplit, TaskAttemptContext)` before the split is used.

  Specified by:
    `createRecordReader` in class `InputFormat<K,V>`
  Parameters:
    `split` - the split to be read
    `context` - the information about the task
  Returns:
    a new record reader
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### getFormatMinSplitSize

    protected long getFormatMinSplitSize()

  Description copied from class: `FileInputFormat`
  Get the lower bound on split size imposed by the format.

  Overrides:
    `getFormatMinSplitSize` in class `FileInputFormat<K,V>`
  Returns:
    the number of bytes of the minimal split for this format

### listStatus

    protected List<FileStatus> listStatus(JobContext job)
                                   throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `FileInputFormat`
  List input directories. Subclasses may override to, e.g., select only files matching a regular expression.

  Overrides:
    `listStatus` in class `FileInputFormat<K,V>`
  Parameters:
    `job` - the job to list input paths for
  Returns:
    array of FileStatus objects
  Throws:
    `IOException` - if zero items.
