----------------------------------
Summary: Support column comments for an HBase backed table
Key: HIVE-12245
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12245
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: HBase Handler
Reporter: Chaoyu Tang
Assignee: Chaoyu Tang
Priority: Minor
Currently the column comments of an HBase backed table are always returned as
"from deserializer". For example,
{code}
CREATE TABLE hbasetbl
(key string comment 'It is key',
state string comment 'It is state',
country string comment 'It is country',
country_id int comment 'It is country_id')
STORED BY 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseStorageHandler'
WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (
"hbase.columns.mapping" = "info:state,info:country,info:country_id"
);
hive> describe hbasetbl;
key string from deserializer
state string from deserializer
country string from deserializer
country_id int from deserializer
{code}
