How to copy files recursive from HDFS to a local folder?












0















The simple way to copy a folder from HDFS to a local folder is like this:



su hdfs -c 'hadoop fs -copyToLocal /hdp /tmp'


In the example above, we copy the hdp folder from HDFS to /tmp/local_folder



But we have a more complicated case. Let’s say under /hdp ( hdfs ), we have



subfolders:
/hdp/folder1
/hdp/folder2
/hdp/folder3/folder_a
.
.
.


And in each subfolder we have files.



In that case, how to copy recursively only the files under /hdp to the local dir /tmp/local_folder?
