benj commented on DRILL-1755:
-----------------------------
This problems seems partially OK,
With a file containing the previous description {noformat}[{"accessLevel":
"public"},{"accessLevel": "private"}]{noformat}
{code:sql}
apache drill (1.16)> SELECT *, 'justfortest' AS mytext FROM
dfs.tmp.`example.json`;
+-------------+-------------+
| accessLevel | mytext |
+-------------+-------------+
| public | justfortest |
| private | justfortest |
+-------------+-------------+
2 rows selected (0.127 seconds)
{code}
But some problems subsists, like
{code:sql}
apache drill (1.16)> SELECT 'justfortest' As mytext FROM dfs.tmp.`example.json`;
Error: DATA_READ ERROR: Error parsing JSON - Cannot read from the middle of a
record. Current token was START_ARRAY
File /tmp/example.json
Record 1
Column 2
Fragment 0:0
{code}
