[jira] [Created] (HIVE-6044) webhcat should be able to return detailed serde information when show table using "fromat=extended"

Shuaishuai Nie created HIVE-6044:
------------------------------------

             Summary: webhcat should be able to return detailed serde information when show table using "fromat=extended"
                 Key: HIVE-6044
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6044
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Shuaishuai Nie
            Assignee: Shuaishuai Nie


Now in webhcat, when using GET ddl/database/:db/table/:table and "format=extended", return value is based on query "show table extended like". However, this query doesn't contains serde info like "line.delim" and "filed.delim". In this case, user won't have enough information to reconstruct the exact same table based on the information from the json file. The "descExtendedTable" function in HcatDelegator should also return extra fields from query "desc extended tablename" which contains fields "sd", "retention", "parameters" "parametersSize" and "tableType".
