Ash Berlin-Taylor resolved AIRFLOW-3246. ---------------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: 1.10.2 > Make hmsclient import optional > ------------------------------ > > Key: AIRFLOW-3246 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-3246 > Project: Apache Airflow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: hive_hooks > Affects Versions: 1.10.0 > Reporter: Gavrilov Seva > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.10.2 > > > Currently hmsclient is imported globally in hive_hooks.py, which is > inconsistent with the general style in this file: hive dependencies are > imported during the runtime. For example thrift components are imported > inside the {{get_metastore_client}} method, but hmsclient also imports thrift > components, so it forces you to have them installed. > I moved the import in this PR: > https://github.com/apache/incubator-airflow/pull/4080 > To give you a bit more information on why i even bother to do such a change, > we are having problems with the new hive dependencies of airflow 1.10, > particularly new version of pyhive. I described the problem > [here|https://github.com/dropbox/PyHive/issues/240], seems like a combination > of docker environment with newest versions of these libraries. We opted to > rollback HiveServer2 hook to use the old dependencies, among them > {{thrift==0.9.3}}, and hmsclient requires newer version of thrift. If you by > chance have any clue on how we can diagnose our problem, please let me know. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
