-----------------------------------
Summary: File Format (ORC/AVRO/TextFile...) available in
information schema for bulk query
Key: HIVE-25660
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-25660
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: File Formats, Metastore
Reporter: Simon AUBERT
Hello all,
As of today, when you want to know the file format of every table, you have, as
far I know, two solutions :
-a loop in shell
-a loop in the tool you use for HQL queries, and then parse the answer, etc..
I think this is way too complicated for such a very basic need. So a
table_file_format (or partion_file_format, I don't know) in the
information_schema would be a very precious help for monitoring.
Best regards,
Simon
