-----------------------------------
Summary: "look up" the `CREATE TABLE` statement used for a table
Key: PHOENIX-5054
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-5054
Project: Phoenix
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Josh Elser
This is a super common problem we run into:
# User files report/complaint
# We ask for DDLs for table and any indexes
# We receive the output of `describe <table>` from the HBase shell
Presumably, we have all of the necessary information inside of
{{SYSTEM.CATALOG}}, we could recreate the {{CREATE TABLE}} statement for a
table, no? I think it would be super helpful to, at a given point in time,
obtain the {{CREATE TABLE}} statement to recreate a table as it currently
exists.
Split points might be the only thing we can't explicitly do via Phoenix, but
that's pretty minor compared to everything else.
