             Summary: Support SHOW TABLES EXTENDED
                 Key: SPARK-30517
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-30517
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Ajith S


{{Intention is to support show tables with a additional column 'type' where 
type can be MANAGED,EXTERNAL,VIEW using which user can query only tables of 
required types, like listing only views or only external tables (using a 
'where' clause over 'type' column).}}

{{Usecase example:}}
{{Currently its not possible to list all the VIEWS, but other technologies like 
hive support it using 'SHOW VIEWS', mysql supports it using a more complex 
query 'SHOW FULL TABLES WHERE table_type = 'VIEW';'}}

Decide to take mysql approach as it provides more flexibility for querying.
