Daniel Dai commented on PIG-2143: --------------------------------- Can we put release notes on this? Thanks. > Make PigStorage optionally store schema; improve docs. > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: PIG-2143 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2143 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Dmitriy V. Ryaboy > Assignee: Dmitriy V. Ryaboy > Fix For: 0.10 > > Attachments: PIG-2143.2.diff, PIG-2143.3.patch, PIG-2143.4.patch, > PIG-2143.5.patch, PIG-2143.diff > > > 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.
