Gerrit Jansen van Vuuren commented on PIG-1117:
-----------------------------------------------
If you have time yes please, that way I can correct anything if need be.
I'll try to implement the fieldsToRead soon, and it should not be that
difficult, I just have to get around to it :).
Thanks for the head up, I'll do some reading up, this change from Slicer to
InputFormat will be great though.
I don't think Hive has an InputFormat, but this isn't a problem.

> I've coded a LoadFunc implementation that can read from Hive Columnar RC
> tables, this is needed for a project that I'm working on because all our data
> is stored using the Hive thrift serialized Columnar RC format. I have looked
> at the piggy bank but did not find any implementation that could do this.
> We've been running it on our cluster for the last week and have worked out
> most bugs.
>
> There are still some improvements to be done but I would need like setting
> the amount of mappers based on date partitioning. Its been optimized so as to
> read only specific columns and can churn through a data set almost 8 times
> faster with this improvement because not all column data is read.
> I would like to contribute the class to the piggybank can you guide me in
> what I need to do?
> I've used hive specific classes to implement this, is it possible to add this
> to the piggy bank build ivy for automatic download of the dependencies?
