## org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.lib.input
Class FileInputFormat<K,V>

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.InputFormat<K,V>
          org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.lib.input.FileInputFormat<K,V>

Direct Known Subclasses:
  SequenceFileInputFormat, TextInputFormat

    public abstract class FileInputFormat<K,V>

extends InputFormat<K,V>

A base class for file-based `InputFormat`s.

`FileInputFormat` is the base class for all file-based `InputFormat`s. This provides a generic implementation of `getSplits(JobContext)`. Subclasses of `FileInputFormat` can also override the `isSplitable(JobContext, Path)` method to ensure input-files are not split-up and are processed as a whole by `Mapper`s.

Constructor Summary

Constructor Detail

### FileInputFormat

    public FileInputFormat()

Method Detail

### getFormatMinSplitSize

    protected long getFormatMinSplitSize()

  Get the lower bound on split size imposed by the format.

  Returns:
    the number of bytes of the minimal split for this format

### isSplitable

    protected boolean isSplitable(JobContext context,
                                  Path filename)

  Is the given filename splitable? Usually, true, but if the file is stream compressed, it will not be. `FileInputFormat` implementations can override this and return `false` to ensure that individual input files are never split-up so that `Mapper`s process entire files.

  Parameters:
    `context` - the job context
    `filename` - the file name to check
  Returns:
    is this file splitable?

### setInputPathFilter

  Set a PathFilter to be applied to the input paths for the map-reduce job.

  Parameters:
    `job` - the job to modify

### getInputPathFilter

    public static PathFilter getInputPathFilter(JobContext context)

  Get a PathFilter instance of the filter set for the input paths.

  Returns:
    the PathFilter instance set for the job, NULL if none has been set.
