You are looking for the ImportTSV utility offered by HBase, and its
bulk-load option. Read up more at
http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh5/cdh/5/hbase/book.html#_importtsv to learn
how to use the ImportTSV to prepare bulk-loadable output, followed by
http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh5/cdh/5/hbase/book.html#arch.bulk.load.complete
which
shows how to load the prepared output finally into HBase.

There's also a slightly dated example of the process on the Cloudera
Engineering blog which uses a CSV example with the above process:

The ImportTSV utility comes included with your CDH installation.

Hallo, can you help me?
I have a problem when importing data into hbase table. I've tried to use importtsv, but the problem is the number of columns in my file very much (1000 columns). Do I have to write all the columns or is there another way that can automatically increase the number of columns according to the file?

Thankyou..
