Ning Zhang updated HIVE-1528: ----------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) Affects Version/s: 0.7.0 Fix Version/s: 0.7.0 > JSON UDTF function > ------------------ > > Key: HIVE-1528 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1528 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 0.7.0 > Reporter: Ning Zhang > Fix For: 0.7.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-1528.patch > > > Currently the only way to evaluate a path expression on a JSON object is > through get_json_object. If there are many fields in the JSON object need to > be extract, we have to call this UDF multiple times. > There are many use cases that get_json_object needs to be called many times > in one query to convert the JSON object to a relational schema. It would be > much desirable if we have a JSON UDTF that supports the following syntax: > {code} > select a.id, b.* > from a lateral view json_table(a.json_object, '$.f1', '$.f2', ..., '$.fn') b > as f1, f2, ..., fn > {code} > where the json_table function only scans the json_object once and return a > set of tuple of (f1, f2,..., fn). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
