mustafasrepo opened a new issue, #6439:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/6439
### Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge?
Some database systems (such as snowflake) support EXCLUDE syntax, during
projection.
For instance, the query below
```sql
SELECT * EXCLUDE(sn)
FROM sales_us
```
show all the columns except sn, this saves user to write explicitly each
desired column.
### Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to have this support.
### Describe alternatives you've considered
_No response_
### Additional context
To replicate problem, one can use the test below
```rust
#[tokio::test]
async fn test_exclude_syntax() -> Result<()> {
let config = SessionConfig::new()
.with_target_partitions(1);
let ctx = SessionContext::with_config(config);
ctx.sql("CREATE TABLE sales_us (
ts TIMESTAMP,
currency VARCHAR(3),
amount INT
) as VALUES
('2022-01-01 10:00:00'::timestamp, 'USD', 100.00),
('2022-01-01 11:00:00'::timestamp, 'USD', 200.00),
('2022-01-02 09:00:00'::timestamp, 'USD', 300.00),
('2022-01-02 10:00:00'::timestamp, 'USD', 150.00)").await?;
let sql = "SELECT * EXCLUDE(sn)
FROM sales_us";
let msg = format!("Creating logical plan for '{sql}'");
let dataframe = ctx.sql(sql).await.expect(&msg);
let physical_plan = dataframe.create_physical_plan().await?;
let batches = collect(physical_plan, ctx.task_ctx()).await?;
print_batches(&batches)?;
Ok(())
}
```
