[jira] [Commented] (IMPALA-6042) Allow Impala shell to also use a global impalarc configuration

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6042?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16667434#comment-16667434 ] 

Ruslan Dautkhanov commented on IMPALA-6042:
-------------------------------------------

Another use case is to update PATH variable, to point to a Python2 home for example.

As impala-shell is not Python3-compatible (IMPALA-3343) and we're migrating all our applications to Python 3.

It would be great to have a way to globally update certain config variables and environment variables like PATH 
to have a workaround for this and some other issues.

Thank you.

> Currently, impalarc files can be specified on a per-user basis (stored in ~/.impalarc), and they aren't created by default. 
> The Impala shell should pick up /etc/impalarc as well, in addition to the user-specific configurations.
> The intent here is to allow a "global" configuration of the shell by a system administrator with common options like:
> {code}
> --ssl
> -l
> -k
> -u <current_user>
> -i <impala>
> {code}
