Shwetha G S commented on ATLAS-409: ----------------------------------- Every time the table is accessed(read/written even through some partitions), the table definition is updated in atlas. That should take care of updating the schema more frequently > Atlas will not import avro tables with schema read from a file > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ATLAS-409 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-409 > Project: Atlas > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.6-incubating > Reporter: Aaron Dossett > Assignee: Aaron Dossett > Attachments: ATLAS-409.patch, example.ddl, foo.avsc > > > Atlas won't import a Hive table with no columns (see below for an example of > a valid hive table with no explicit columns). This is because the Atlas Hive > Storage Descriptor class REQUIRES columns, but the Hive Table class allows > them to be OPTIONAL. > {code} > CREATE TABLE example > ROW FORMAT SERDE > 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.avro.AvroSerDe' > STORED AS INPUTFORMAT > 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerInputFormat' > OUTPUTFORMAT > 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerOutputFormat' > TBLPROPERTIES ( > 'avro.schema.url'='file:///path/to/the/schema/test_serializer.avsc'); > {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
