James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-1609:
---------------------------------------
One more comment on the ColumnInfo to/from string. Would it be possible to
surround the column family and column name with double quotes instead and use a
':' separator? With functional indexes, it's possible that almost any character
would be used in the column name (as we use the expression itself as the column
name). We currently don't support a " character within the column name, but
that may change too (by escaping the double quote by repeating it).

> Often, we need to create new indexes on master tables way after the data
> exists on the master tables. It would be good to have a simple MR job given
> by the phoenix code that users can call to have indexes in sync with the
> master table.
> Users can invoke the MR job using the following command
> hadoop jar org.apache.phoenix.mapreduce.Index -st MASTER_TABLE -tt
> INDEX_TABLE -columns a,b,c
> Is this ideal?
