Map Reduce Plugin

The above figure shows the tool shortly after log-in.

Note: If you set append results to false, there is no need to set an age out.
Note: If you don't want your job to depend on another jobs completion, do not select any job depenencies (you can CTRL-click to remove selected options if necessary).

Scheduling a new Saved Query

If you want to schedule a saved query instead of a map reduce plugin you can follow the exact same process as scheduling a m/r job except for these few changes:

  1. Leave JAR file blank
  2. Leave Mapper, Combiner, and Reducer class blank
  3. Submit a valid query for the query field, a good place to start is saving queries from the http://infinite.ikanow.com Gui under the Advanced -> Save option.  These can be pasted into the query field.

Editing existing plugins/saved queries

After log-in, all plugins you own can be seen from the top drop-down menu (initially called "Upload New File"). If you are a community owner or moderator, all plugins in your communities can be seen in addition. If you an administrator, all plugins in the system can be seen.
