Thanks, that is an excellent article! One of my customers uses Clojure and HBase a lot, but that is not part of the project that I touch much. When I have time, I am going to try working through this example running HBase and Hadoop on my laptop in developermode. Most of my experience is running in developer mode and then using Elastic Map Reduce but I have read through 'HBase the Definitive Guide' and I am now feeling like kicking it up a notch and better learn how to run a cluster myself.
Were you planning to touch base with me about having forked my Clojure-HBase library, making changes, and adding novel new version numbers? First I've heard of this.
I posted a pull request to the Clojure Hadoop library earlier this week, I was hoping to get those changes pulled in first as your library depends on that library as well. No offense was intended.
OK, that's cool. I really was asking, you would be within the license rights. I try to keep all my libraries maintained, but sometimes don't have cause to work on some things for a while and things escape my notice.
Though as a footnote, there is no dependency on Clojure Hadoop, they work together without a dependency. I'd take a pull request if the vars that are being moved from defvar- to def have ^{:private true} added to their metadata.
