Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-7115:
---------------------------------------
That would be really nice especially if it could be extended to dependent
projects
https://github.com/edwardcapriolo/hive_test requires lots of trickery to launch
a hive process.
> Support a mechanism for running hive locally that doesnt require having a
> hadoop executable.

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Testing Infrastructure, Tests
> Reporter: jay vyas
>
> Mapreduce has a "local" mode by default, and likewise, tools such as pig and
> SOLR do as well,.... maybe we can have a first class local mode for hive
> also.
> For local integration testing of a hadoop app, it would be nice if we could
> fire up a local hive instance which didnt require "bin/hadoop" for running
> local jobs. This would allow us to maintain polyglot hadoop applications
> much easier by incorporating hive into the integration tests. For example:
> {noformat}
> LocalHiveInstance hive = new LocalHiveInstance();
> hive.set("course","crochet")l
> hive.runScript("hive_flow.ql")l
> {noformat}
> Would essentially run a local hive query which mirrors
> {noformat}
> hive -f hive_flow.ql -hiveconf course=crochet
> {noformat{
> It seems like thee might be a simple way to do this, at least for small data
> sets, by putting some kind of alternative (i.e. in memory) execution
> environment under hive, if one is not already underway ?
