The storage plugin "location" needs to be the full path to the localdata
directory. This partial storage plugin definition works for the user named
mapr:
{
"type": "file",
"enabled": true,
"connection": "file:///",
"workspaces": {
"root": {
"location": "/home/mapr/localdata",
"writable": false,
"defaultInputFormat": null
},
. . .
Here's a working query for the data in localdata:
0: jdbc:drill:> SELECT COLUMNS[0] AS Ngram,
. . . . . . . > COLUMNS[1] AS Publication_Date,
. . . . . . . > COLUMNS[2] AS Frequency
. . . . . . . > FROM dfs.root.`mydata.csv`
. . . . . . . > WHERE ((columns[0] = 'Zoological Journal of the Linnean')
. . . . . . . > AND (columns[2] > 250)) LIMIT 10;
An complete example, not yet published on the Drill site, shows in detail
the steps involved:
