Improvements for PigStorage --------------------------- Key: PIG-2143 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2143 Project: Pig Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Dmitriy V. Ryaboy
I'd like to propose that we allow for a greater degree of customization in PigStorage. An incomplete list features that we might want to add: - flag to tell it to overwrite existing output if it exists - flag to tell it to compress output using gzip|bzip|lzo (currently this can be achieved by setting the directory name to end in .gz or .bz2, which is a bit awkward) - flag to tell it to store the schema and header (perhaps by merging in PigStorageSchema work?) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
