             Summary: Emit pre/post events for "Partition" methods in 
ExternalCatalogWithListener
                 Key: SPARK-30244
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-30244
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 2.4.4
            Reporter: Jackson Westeen


Many of the methods in `ExternalCatalogWithListener` support emitting pre/post 
events to the ListenerBus when delegating calls to the underlying 
ExternalCatalog implementation. 

Is there a reason the "Partition" series of methods don't support this feature?

[https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/v2.4.4/sql/catalyst/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/catalyst/catalog/ExternalCatalogWithListener.scala#L193]

We're looking to hook into post "ALTER TABLE ADD PARTITION" calls, so we can 
publish a message to Kafka for example, whenever new partitions are added to 
the metastore.

It appears there's already event hooks for createDatabase / createTable.. but 
not createPartition. Would you consider adding hooks here? Or is there a better 
way to hook into to successful "ALTER TABLE ADD PARTITION" calls and subscribe 
to changes in partition status?

Thank you!
