Thanks everybody.

A workaround:
cat script.q | sed -e 's/arg1/arg1val/' | bin/hive

Hive 0.7.X and up supports using variables in queries. This is
documented in the SVN tree.

You still might need some scripting outside of hive still but in many
cases this can get the job done.
On Wed, Ma
I'm wondering the same. I didn't notice it in the documentation for 0.7.
My (possibly silly) way of dealing with it is to write ruby scripts to
concatenate commands like
> bin/hive -e "some statement"
to a shell script, then execute the shell script. Parameterized scripting
would be so welcome
Hey all,
Just wondering if there is native support for input arguments on Hive
scripts.
eg. $ bin/hive -f script.q
Any documentation I could reference to look into this further?
Cheers,
Jon
