Review request for hive.
Bugs: HIVE-4367
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4367
Repository: hive-git
Description
-------
In my use case ,
sometimes I have to remove data of external tables to free up storage space of
the cluster .
So it's necessary for to enhance the syntax like
"TRUNCATE TABLE srcpart_truncate PARTITION (dt='201130412') FORCE;"
to remove data from EXTERNAL table.
And I add a configuration property to enable remove data to Trash
<property>
<name>hive.truncate.skiptrash</name>
<value>false</value>
<description>
if true will remove data to trash, else false drop data immediately
</description>
</property>
For example :
hive (default)> TRUNCATE TABLE external1 partition (ds='11');
FAILED: Error in semantic analysis: Cannot truncate non-managed table external1
hive (default)> TRUNCATE TABLE external1 partition (ds='11') FORCE;
[2013-04-16 17:15:52]: Compile Start
[2013-04-16 17:15:52]: Compile End
[2013-04-16 17:15:52]: OK

hive (default)> set hive.truncate.skiptrash;
hive.truncate.skiptrash=false
hive (default)> set hive.truncate.skiptrash=true;
hive (default)> TRUNCATE TABLE external1 partition (ds='12') FORCE;
[2013-04-16 17:16:21]: Compile Start
[2013-04-16 17:16:21]: Compile End
[2013-04-16 17:16:21]: OK
[2013-04-16 17:16:21]: Time taken: 0.143 seconds
hive (default)> dfs -ls /user/test/.Trash/Current/;
