----------------------------------
Summary: Add support for wild card LOCATION for external table
Key: HIVE-17236
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17236
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Hive
Affects Versions: 1.2.2
Reporter: nirav patel
Hive currently doesn't support wild car in path for external table. I think it
should considering mapreduce framework supports it and it's a common
requirement.
Following should work
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE testTable (val map<string, string>)
ROW FORMAT DELIMITED
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\t'
LOCATION '/user/mycomp/customers/*/departments/partition/*/sales.tsv';
