Add a One Row per Column-View or \G option to command line output -----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-2423 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2423 Project: Hive Issue Type: New Feature Components: CLI Affects Versions: 0.8.0, 0.9.0 Environment: all Reporter: Jake Peterson Fix For: 0.8.0, 0.9.0 The hive client desperately needs better table output. I think having a query option to send output one column per line with the column name would desperately help looking at wide table data. Here I'm thinking of the \G option from the MySQL client. So essentially the command line would get a new query ending token '\G' Which would change the output to: ************* Row: 1 ******************* Column_A: Value 1 Column_B: Value 2 Column_CD: 34565434 ************* Row: 2 ******************* .... Right aligning the column names, with a single space before starting the value of that column from the output table row. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
