Alex Newman commented on PIG-759: --------------------------------- Exactly although I am not sure what the subsection syntax should look like. > HBaseStorage scheme for Load/Slice function > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-759 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-759 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Gunther Hagleitner > > We would like to change the HBaseStorage function to use a scheme when > loading a table in pig. The scheme we are thinking of is: "hbase". So in > order to load an hbase table in a pig script the statement should read: > {noformat} > table = load 'hbase://<tablename>' using HBaseStorage(); > {noformat} > If the scheme is omitted pig would assume the tablename to be an hdfs path > and the storage function would use the last component of the path as a table > name and output a warning. > For details on why see jira issue: PIG-758 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
