> Add syntax highlight support for beeline
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-29664
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-29664
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Beeline
> Reporter: Attila Turoczy
> Assignee: Attila Turoczy
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> Beeline is the classic CLI SQL client for Hive. Currently, the query editor
> is plain text only and does not provide any syntax highlighting for Hive SQL.
> This makes it harder for users to read queries, identify keywords, and
> quickly notice mistyped SQL statements.
> To improve usability, Beeline should support basic Hive SQL syntax
> highlighting. The implementation can start with a static list of commonly
> used Hive SQL keywords, such as {*}SELECT{*}, {*}INSERT{*}, {*}JOIN{*},
> {*}WHERE{*}, *GROUP BY, ORDER BY, CREATE, DROP, ALTER,* and others.
> The syntax highlighting should be enabled by default to provide a better user
> experience out of the box. However, users should also have a configuration
> option or command-line flag to disable it when needed, for example in
> environments where plain text output is preferred or required.
