Bill Graham commented on PIG-1782: ---------------------------------- @Dmitriy I think the deprecation idea has it's merits. The patch I'm working on is actually against HBase 0.90.0. It basically includes the PIG-1680 patch. What if we deprecated the existing HBase classes and created new ones in a new location that required HBase >= 0.90. That way we can clean up the package structure and put off having to shim a little longer. > Add ability to load data by column family in HBaseStorage > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-1782 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1782 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: New Feature > Environment: Java 6, Mac OS X 10.6 > Reporter: Eric Yang > Assignee: Bill Graham > > It would be nice to load all columns in the column family by using short hand > syntax like: > {noformat} > CpuMetrics = load 'hbase://SystemMetrics' USING > org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.hbase.HBaseStorage('cpu:','-loadKey'); > {noformat} > Assuming there are columns cpu: sys.0, cpu:sys.1, cpu:user.0, cpu:user.1, in > cpu column family. > CpuMetrics would contain something like: > {noformat} > (rowKey, cpu:sys.0, cpu:sys.1, cpu:user.0, cpu:user.1) > {noformat} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
