Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-3039:
--------------------------------------
bq. For HiveConfiguration instead of listing all the configuration, its better
to auto-generate them from hive-default.xml.template
"[Configuration
Properties|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Configuration+Properties]";
in the Language Manual contains almost all the parameters from
_hive-default.xml.template_ and their descriptions, tidied up and partly
reorganized. Carl Steinbach added it to the wiki two months ago. I found six
parameters in the file that aren't in the wiki, and four parameters in the wiki
that aren't in the file.
"[Hive
Configuration|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/AdminManual+Configuration]";
in the Administration Manual has some overlap with _hive-default.xml.template_
but also documents other parameters. Here's a breakdown by section:
* "Hive Configuration Variables" - 7 of 20 parameters are not in
_hive-default.xml.template_ ({{hive.exec.script.wrapper, hive.exec.plan,
hive.querylog.location, hive.exec.submitviachild, hive.jar.path,
hive.aux.jars.path, hive.partition.pruning}})
* "Hive MetaStore Configuration Variables" - 2 of 18 parameters not in
_hive-default.xml.template_ ({{org.jpox.autoCreateSchema,
org.jpox.fixedDatastore}})
* "Hive Configuration Variables used to interact with Hadoop" - 6 of 7
parameters not in _hive-default.xml.template_ but presumably they're documented
in other projects ({{hadoop.bin.path, hadoop.config.dir, fs.default.name,
map.input.file, mapred.job.tracker, mapred.job.name}})
* "Hive Variables used to pass run time information" - 7 parameters, none of
them in _hive-default.xml.template_ ({{hive.session.id, hive.query.string,
hive.query.planid, hive.jobname.length, hive.table.name, hive.partition.name,
hive.alias}})
So should the admin & language "Configuration" docs be merged?
