Passing parameters to Beeline

Hi All,

Hope all are enjoying working in hive !!!

I am having one question regarding hive and beeline:

I am passing parameters to hive script using "-d".
    Eg: *hive -d table_name -f emp.hql*

*     emp.hql:*
        CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE ${table_name}

            (

                  ID STRING,

                  NAME STRING

             ) ..............


It works perfectly fine.


But when I switch to beeline, beeline doesn't support "-d". Is there any
way so that beeline accepts parameters in form of "-d".

Correction

 

That bl should read (no ,)

 

bl='beeline -u jdbc:hive2://rhes564.hedani.co:10010/default org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver -n <USER> -p <PASSWORD> -i /home/<USER>/dba/bin/hive_on_spark_init.hql'

Another issue is I am using Hive 0.13.0.2.1.7.0-784  and Beeline version 0.13.0.2.1.7.0-784 by Apache Hive.

 

I am able to execute:

          hive -e "use db_test; show tables"

 

But while executing same in beeline gives error:

Try putting " -e "use db_stage;show tables"  in a file instead and do

 

bl -f <FILE_NAME>

             ) ..............

 

It works perfectly fine.

 

But when I switch to beeline, beeline doesn't support "-d". Is there any way so that beeline accepts parameters in form of "-d".

Thanks Maciek !!!!!

Another issue is I am using *Hive 0.13.0.2.1.7.0-784 * and *Beeline version
0.13.0.2.1.7.0-784 by Apache Hive.*

I am able to execute:
          *hive -e "use db_test; show tables"*

But while executing same in beeline gives error:
          *beeline -u "<details>" -e **"use db_test; show tables"*
*                                   OR*
          *beeline -u "<details>" -e **"use db_test \; show tables"*



*Error:*ParseException line 1:13 missing EOF at ''\ ;'' near 'db_test'
(state=42000,code=40000)

Try *--hivevar **name=value*
works for hive and should work for beeline too:

<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/HiveServer2+Clients#HiveServer2Clients-Beeline%E2%80%93NewCommandLineShell>

Thank you,
Kind Regards
