Ning Zhang commented on HIVE-1836: ---------------------------------- Yes, will add 'alter database' also in a follow-up JIRA. A question is that if alter the current database, wether to change the HiveConf parameters accordingly. Since 'alter database' is not a blocking issue yet, I'm working on HIVE-1820 first and then come back to that. > Extend the CREATE DATABASE command with DBPROPERTIES > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1836 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1836 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Ning Zhang > Assignee: Ning Zhang > Attachments: HIVE-1836.patch > > > We should be able to assign key-value pairs of properties to Hive databases. > The proposed syntax is similar to the CREATE TABLE and CREATE INDEX commands: > {code} > CREATE DATABASE <DB_NAME> WITH DBPROPERTIES ('key1' = 'value1', 'key2' = > 'value2'); > {code} > The > {code} > DESC DATABASE EXTENDED <DB_NAME>; > {code} > should be able to display the properties.
