Hi,
My application is using hive extenal tables with ORC and needs some special
logic to filter out some input files. I was thinking to write a custom
InputFormat extending OrcInputFormat.
create external table test1 (...)
ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.orc.OrcSerde'
STORED AS INPUTFORMAT 'MyFilteredOrcInputFormat'
OUTPUTFORMAT 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.orc.OrcOutputFormat'
location 'file:///Users/{username}/Documents/test1';
However, the custom input format is in effect at all. I wonder whether
OrcSerde can work with custom input format. Or should I write a custom
serde extending OrcSerde? Any insight is appreciated. Thanks very much!
