> Key: DRILL-6965
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-6965
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Reporter: Arina Ielchiieva
> Assignee: Arina Ielchiieva
> Priority: Major
> Labels: doc-impacting, ready-to-commit
> Fix For: 1.17.0

> Schema can be used while reading the table into two ways:
> a. schema is created in the table root folder using CREATE SCHEMA command
> and schema usage command is enabled;
> b. schema indicated in table function.
> This Jira implements point b.
> Schema indication using table function is useful when user does not want to
> persist schema in table root location or when reading from file, not folder.
> Schema parameter can be used as individual unit or in together with for
> format plugin table properties.
> Usage examples:
> Pre-requisites:
> V3 reader must be enabled: {{set `exec.storage.enable_v3_text_reader` =
> true;}}
> Query examples:
> 1. There is folder with files or just one file (ex: dfs.tmp.text_table) and
> user wants to apply schema to them:
> a. indicate schema inline:
> {noformat}
> select * from table(dfs.tmp.`text_table`(
> schema => 'inline=(col1 date properties {`drill.format` = `yyyy-MM-dd`})
> properties {`drill.strict` = `false`}'))
> {noformat}
> To indicate only table properties use the following syntax:
> {noformat}
> select * from table(dfs.tmp.`text_table`(
> schema => 'inline=()
> properties {`drill.strict` = `false`}'))
> {noformat}
> b. indicate schema using path:
> First schema was created in some location using CREATE SCHEMA command. For
> example:
> {noformat}
> create schema
> (col int)
> path '/tmp/my_schema'
> {noformat}
> Now user wants to apply this schema in table function:
> {noformat}
> select * from table(dfs.tmp.`text_table`(schema => 'path=`/tmp/my_schema`'))
> {noformat}
> 2. User wants to apply schema along side with format plugin table function
> parameters.
> Assuming that user has CSV file with headers with extension that does not
> comply to default text file with headers extension (ex: cars.csvh-test):
> {noformat}
> select * from table(dfs.tmp.`cars.csvh-test`(type => 'text',
> fieldDelimiter => ',', extractHeader => true,
> schema => 'inline=(col1 date)'))
> {noformat}
> More details about syntax can be found in design document:
