hadoop - Pig Latin: Load multiple files from a date range (part of the directory structure)

I have the following scenario-

Pig version used 0.70

Sample HDFS directory structure:

/user/training/test/20100810/<data files>
/user/training/test/20100811/<data files>
/user/training/test/20100812/<data files>
/user/training/test/20100813/<data files>
/user/training/test/20100814/<data files>

As you can see in the paths listed above, one of the directory names is a date stamp.

Problem: I want to load files from a date range say from 20100810 to 20100813.

I can pass the 'from' and 'to' of the date range as parameters to the Pig script but how do I make use of these parameters in the LOAD statement. I am able to do the following

temp = LOAD '/user/training/test/{20100810,20100811,20100812}' USING SomeLoader() AS (...);

The following works with hadoop:

hadoop fs -ls /user/training/test/{20100810..20100813}

But it fails when I try the same with LOAD inside the pig script. How do I make use of the parameters passed to the Pig script to load data from a date range?

Error log follows:

Do I need to make use of a higher language like Python to capture all date stamps in the range and pass them to LOAD as a comma separated list?

cheers

As zjffdu said, the path expansion is done by the shell. One common way to solve your problem is to simply use Pig parameters (which is a good way to make your script more resuable anyway):

shell:

pig -f script.pig -param input=/user/training/test/{20100810..20100812}

script.pig:

temp = LOAD '$input' USING SomeLoader() AS (...);
