DateTime Support - Hive Parquet

All,

I am attempting to write objects that include a DateTime properties to a
persistent table using Spark 1.5.2 / HiveContext.  In 1.4.1 I was forced to
convert the DateTime properties to Timestamp properties.  I was under the
impression that this issue was fixed in the default Hive supported with
1.5.2 - however, I am still seeing the associated errors.

Is there a bug I can follow to determine when DateTime will be supported
for Parquet?

Regards,

Bryan Jeffrey

Oh sorry, you're right. Implicit conversion doesn't affect the schema 
inference process.

Just checked that Joda is already a direct dependency of Spark. So I 
think it's probably fine to add support for recognizing Joda DateTime as 
SQL TimestampType. Would you mind to file a JIRA ticket for it? PR is 
also welcomed!

Cheng,

I am using Scala. I have an implicit conversion from Joda DateTime to timestamp. My tables are defined with Timestamp. However explicit conversation appears to be required. Do you have an example of implicit conversion for this case? Do you convert on insert or on RDD to DF conversion?

Bryan Jeffrey

I see, then this is actually irrelevant to Parquet. I guess can support Joda DateTime in Spark SQL reflective schema inference to have this, provided that this is a frequent use case and Spark SQL already has Joda as a direct dependency.

On the other hand, if you are using Scala, you can write a simple implicit conversion method to avoid all the manual conversions.

Hey Bryan,
 
What do you mean by "DateTime properties"? Hive and Spark SQL both 
support DATE and TIMESTAMP types, but there's no DATETIME type. So I 
assume you are referring to Java class DateTime (possibly the one in 
joda)? Could you please provide a sample snippet that illustrates your 
requirement?

Cheng,

That’s exactly what I was hoping for – native support for writing DateTime objects. As it stands Spark 1.5.2 seems to leave no option but to do manual conversion (to nanos, Timestamp, etc) prior to writing records to hive.

Hey Bryan,

What do you mean by "DateTime properties"? Hive and Spark SQL both 
support DATE and TIMESTAMP types, but there's no DATETIME type. So I 
assume you are referring to Java class DateTime (possibly the one in 
joda)? Could you please provide a sample snippet that illustrates your 
requirement?
