> Issue:
> ======
> Due to lack of parameters (or support for) equivalent of '-libjars' and '-archives' in WebHcat REST API, we cannot use an external Java Jars or Archive files with a Streaming MapReduce job, when the job is submitted via WebHcat/templeton. 
> I am citing a few use cases here, but there can be plenty of scenarios like this-
> #1 
> (for -archives):In order to use R with a hadoop distribution like HDInsight or HDP on Windows, we could package the R directory up in a zip file and rename it to r.jar and put it into HDFS or WASB. We can then do 
> something like this from hadoop command line (ignore the wasb syntax, same command can be run with hdfs) - 
> hadoop jar %HADOOP_HOME%\lib\hadoop-streaming.jar -archives wasb:///example/jars/r.jar -files "wasb:///example/apps/mapper.r,wasb:///example/apps/reducer.r" -mapper "./r.jar/bin/Rscript.exe mapper.r" -reducer "./r.jar/bin/Rscript.exe reducer.r" -input /example/data/gutenberg -output /probe/r/wordcount
> This works from hadoop command line, but due to lack of support for '-archives' parameter in WebHcat, we can't submit the same Streaming MR job via WebHcat.
> #2 (for -libjars):
> Consider a scenario where a user would like to use a custom inputFormat with a Streaming MapReduce job and wrote his own custom InputFormat JAR. From a hadoop command line we can do something like this - 
> hadoop jar /path/to/hadoop-streaming.jar \
>         -libjars /path/to/custom-formats.jar \
>         -D map.output.key.field.separator=, \
>         -D mapred.text.key.partitioner.options=-k1,1 \
>         -input my_data/ \
>         -output my_output/ \
>         -outputformat test.example.outputformat.DateFieldMultipleOutputFormat \
>         -mapper my_mapper.py \
>         -reducer my_reducer.py \
> But due to lack of support for '-libjars' parameter for streaming MapReduce job in WebHcat, we can't submit the above streaming MR job (that uses a custom Java JAR) via WebHcat.
> Impact:
> ========
> We think, being able to submit jobs remotely is a vital feature for hadoop to be enterprise-ready and WebHcat plays an important role there. Streaming MapReduce job is also very important for interoperability. So, it would be very useful to keep WebHcat on par with hadoop command line in terms of streaming MR job submission capability.
> Ask:
> ====
> Enable parameter support for 'libjars' and 'archives' in WebHcat for Hadoop streaming jobs in WebHcat.
