----------------------------------
Summary: Remove submit_plan script from Drill distribution
Key: DRILL-4752
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-4752
Project: Apache Drill
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 1.6.0
Reporter: Paul Rogers
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.8.0
The Drill distribution includes a submit_plan script in $DRILL_HOME/bin. In
Drill's early days, before Drill has a SQL parser and planner, users submitted
query plans directly to Drill. Since that time, the other Drill scripts have
evolved to support configuration directories, memory options, and more. The old
submit_plan script does not include these enhancements.
It appears that the Drill unit tests do not exercise the script, meaning that
we have no way to verify that it still works.
Rather than invest time to "modernize" submit_plan, we propose to drop it from
the distribution. The script will remain in the Git source tree for the odd
case where someone needs it (and wants to enhance the script to use
drill-config.sh, etc.)
