Szehon Ho commented on HIVE-7390:
---------------------------------
Thanks for the details, I was just reading the earlier comments and wrongly
assumed that the two valid CSV options ones are double-quotes, and no quotes at
all. You're right that normal quote mode still means quotes sometimes, so my
proposed naming didnt make sense, sorry about that Ferdinand.
So we should:
# Fix the current CSV to conform by using super-csv (like the patch I
originally looked at in HIVE-7434). No debate on that.
# See what CSV options (if any) we are going to expose
I'd still try to keep it simple if possible. Can we expose quote mode only?
(always, normal). Im not sure if delimiter, quote character would add that
much value, but I'm not heavy CSV user. Thoughts?
> Make quote character optional and configurable in BeeLine CSV/TSV output

> Currently when either the CSV or TSV output formats are used in beeline each
> column is wrapped in single quotes. Quote wrapping of columns should be
> optional and the user should be able to choose the character used to wrap the
