Hadoop::Streaming::Reducer - Simplify writing Hadoop Streaming jobs. Write a reduce() function and let this role handle the Stream interface. This Reducer roll provides an iterator over the multiple values for a given key.

    #!/usr/bin/env perl

    package WordCount::Reducer;
    use Moose;
    with qw/Hadoop::Streaming::Reducer/;

    sub reduce {
        my ($self, $key, $values) = @_;

        my $count = 0;
        while ( $values->has_next ) {
            $count++;
            $values->next;
        }

        $self->emit( $key => $count );
    }

    package main;
    WordCount::Reducer->run;

Your mapper class must implement map($key,$value) and your reducer must implement reduce($key,$value). Your classes will have emit() and run() methods added via the role.

    Package->run();

This method starts the Hadoop::Streaming::Reducer instance.

After creating a new object instance, it reads from STDIN and calls $object->reduce( ) passing in the key and an iterator of values for that key.

Subclasses need only implement reduce() to produce a complete Hadoop Streaming compatible reducer.
