[jira] [Updated] (HIVE-17540) remove feature: describe pretty
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17540?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Zoltan Haindrich updated HIVE-17540:
------------------------------------
Description:
I've bumped into "describe pretty" feature...which was probably a usefull thing when it was introduced....but I haven't seen it documented anywhere ... google [results|https://www.google.hu/search?num=50&q=%22describe+pretty%22+hive&oq=%22describe+pretty%22+hive&gs_l=psy-ab.3..35i39k1.4651.6121.0.6290.3.3.0.0.0.0.96.271.3.3.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..0.3.270....0.NzSfMzfEfs8] are only about the implementation of the feature.
there are qtest about it:
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/88ca553c451d8d23778a912ec26b262eda402c68/ql/src/test/queries/clientpositive/describe_pretty.q#L35
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/88ca553c451d8d23778a912ec26b262eda402c68/ql/src/test/results/clientpositive/describe_pretty.q.out#L43
this feature makes it possible to render column comments more nicely...
I think beeline is already able to address formatting issues like this at a much wider scale; so it might be ok to remove the 'describe pretty' support...or at least I think it would be better to put efforts into displaying things on beeline more nicely
