             Summary: Expose list of Drill functions for consumption by 
JavaScript libraries
                 Key: DRILL-6084
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-6084
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Web Server
            Reporter: Kunal Khatua
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: Future


DRILL-5868 introduces SQL highlighter and the auto-complete feature in the 
web-UI's query editor.
For the backend Javascript to highlight the keywords correctly as SQL reserved 
words or functions, it needs a list of all the Drill functions to be already 
defined in a source JavaScript ( {{../mode-sql.js}} ) .
While this works well for standard Drill functions, it means that any new 
function added to Drill needs to be explicitly hard-coded into the file, rather 
than be programatically discovered and loaded for the library to highlight.

It would help if this can be done dynamically without contributors having to 
explicitly alter the script file to add new function names.
