Kristine Hahn closed DRILL-2071. -------------------------------- > Better documentation for JSON reader all_text_mode option > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DRILL-2071 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2071 > Project: Apache Drill > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Documentation > Reporter: Jason Altekruse > Assignee: Kristine Hahn > Fix For: 0.7.0 > > > Currently Drill will fail by default to read JSON files with changes in > schema, or with several different data types in a list. These files can > however be read if the store.json.all_text_mode option is set to true. This > option will read all data from the JSON files as varchar and from here the > data can be casted to an appropriate type (or filtered out in the case where > a cast to numeric is desired but some of the data in the column is a string > or boolean type). This is only mentioned on the wiki in this page, but does > not really describe all of the use cases of the feature. > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DRILL/Analyzing+Yelp+JSON+Data+with+Apache+Drill -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
