Veena Basavaraj commented on SQOOP-1643:
----------------------------------------
Yes, I had similar plans, but it will need us to store this in the SQ_INPUT. It
is straightforward to make this changes and need a upgrade path.
> Sqoop2: Add Requires/Optional attribute support for input names

> Key: SQOOP-1643
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-1643
> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Reporter: Veena Basavaraj

> Fix For: 1.99.4

>
> The goal is to have much better user experience when user has to fill out the
> values for config inputs in the UI/ shell client.
> Today there is no way to tell if a input is required or optional. Also the
> help labels should be more clear in explaining what each of them mean and
> when their value is not required. We can even group the required ones first
> and then the optional ones latter
> Similar to
> {code}
> /**
> * Sqoop will ensure that sensitive information will not be easily
> * accessible.
> *
> * @return True if field is sensitive
> */
> boolean sensitive() default false;
> boolean required() default true;
> {code}
