Edward Yoon commented on HADOOP-2502: ------------------------------------- All is timestamp. But, Sometimes we might need a convert function as a timestamp to string or string to timestamp. Because we are human. So, Make a function package. And, i'd like to make a 'DateTimeFormats' system table when system initializing. Then, user can insert/select own date format style for converting. Otherwise, just hard coding. Anyhow, it also will be a good util for users. Grammars are simiple. I'd like to some copy the common SQL syntax. > [Hbase Shell] Insert/Select timestamp, Timestamp data type in HQL > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2502 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2502 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: contrib/hbase > Affects Versions: 0.16.0 > Environment: All > Reporter: Edward Yoon > Assignee: Edward Yoon > Fix For: 0.16.0 > > > Current Insert/Select commands can't flexible handle the date. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
