Jason Dere created HIVE-9298: -------------------------------- Summary: Support reading alternate timestamp formats Key: HIVE-9298 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9298 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Serializers/Deserializers Reporter: Jason Dere Assignee: Jason Dere
There are some users who want to be able to parse ISO-8601 timestamps, as well to set their own custom timestamp formats. We may be able to support this in LazySimpleSerDe through the use of a SerDe parameter to specify one or more alternative timestamp patterns to use to parse timestamp values from string. If we are doing this it might also be nice to work in support for HIVE-3844, to parse numeric strings as timestamp by treating the numeric value as millis since Unix epoch. This can be enabled through the SerDe params as well. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
