Andrew Chalfant commented on HIVE-3068: --------------------------------------- Sorry about that, did not realize it was a faux pas, won't happen again. > Add ability to export table metadata as JSON on table drop > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3068 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3068 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Metastore, Serializers/Deserializers > Reporter: Andrew Chalfant > Assignee: Andrew Chalfant > Priority: Minor > Labels: features, newbie > Attachments: HIVE-3068.2.patch.txt > > Original Estimate: 24h > Remaining Estimate: 24h > > When a table is dropped, the contents go to the users trash but the metadata > is lost. It would be super neat to be able to save the metadata as well so > that tables could be trivially re-instantiated via thrift. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
