Disclaimer
At the time I'm writing this, Pig is not stable yet and didn't release any official version.
This plugin is a work in progress and is not stable yet (and will not be until an official pig release)
But any help to improve this plugin will be greatly appreciate :)
Install
Add Sausage update site url https://sausage.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/sausage/update-site/ to Eclipse.
Help > Software Updates > Find and Install
Use
Create a "test.pig" file.
Type a pig query like for example:
input = LOAD '/my/path/to/part-00000' USING PigStorage();
words = FOREACH input GENERATE FLATTEN(TOKENIZE(*));
grouped = GROUP words BY $0;
counts = FOREACH grouped GENERATE group, COUNT(words);
You'll see the pig language keywords will be highlighted.
Enter connection parameters to your hadoop cluster in eclipse preferences > pig
Run your pig query with the pig button in the tool bar.
Watch eclipse console for output.
