Browse HDFS(Hadoop Distributed File System) in Emacs using Tramp.
Put this somewhere in your init file. Eg. ~/.emacs or ~/.emacs.d/init.el
(require 'tramp-hdfs)
It uses hdfs rest api/webhdfs which is supported in hadoop 1 & 2. The syntax to open file in hdfs is just like opening file over tramp.
/hdfs:root@node-1:/tmp
Here, root is the user that you want to use, node-1 is the name of the hadoop server. As a general advice refrain from using superuser accounts like hdfs, hadaoop.
