A WebHDFS module for Node.js
I am currently following the WebHDFS REST API documentation for the 1.0.2 release, by Apache.
I'm not an expert on HDFS. This module has been written as a requirement for a personal project. I am actively using the module and have written tests for it. Your mileage may vary.
I use Mocha and should.js for unit testing. They will be required if you want to run the unit tests. To execute the tests, simply npm test.
