Maxime C Dumas created HBASE-10082: -------------------------------------- Summary: Describe 'table' output is all on one line, could use better formatting Key: HBASE-10082 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10082 Project: HBase Issue Type: Improvement Environment: 0.94.2-cdh4.2.1 Reporter: Maxime C Dumas
If you describe 'table' from the HBase shell, you get an output like this for a very simple table: hbase(main):023:0> describe 'movie' DESCRIPTION ENABLED {NAME => 'movie', FAMILIES => [{NAME => 'info', DATA_BLOCK_ENCODING => 'NONE', B true LOOMFILTER => 'NONE', REPLICATION_SCOPE => '0', VERSIONS => '3', COMPRESSION => 'NONE', MIN_VERSIONS => '0', TTL => '2147483647', KEEP_DELETED_CELLS => 'false', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', ENCODE_ON_DISK => 'true', BLOCKCACH E => 'true'}, {NAME => 'media', DATA_BLOCK_ENCODING => 'NONE', BLOOMFILTER => 'N ONE', REPLICATION_SCOPE => '0', VERSIONS => '1', COMPRESSION => 'NONE', MIN_VERS IONS => '0', TTL => '2147483647', KEEP_DELETED_CELLS => 'false', BLOCKSIZE => '6 5536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', ENCODE_ON_DISK => 'true', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}]} 1 row(s) in 0.0250 seconds Not only everything is on one row, but also it seems to be limited in width (82 chars). I suggest we do a line return on each column family, or format it into a JSON (lint) format, or anything more readable! Thanks! -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
