[jira] [Created] (DRILL-2175) Provide an option to not display the list of files in the physical plan

             Summary: Provide an option to not display the list of files in the physical plan
                 Key: DRILL-2175
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2175
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Query Planning & Optimization
            Reporter: Aman Sinha
            Assignee: Jinfeng Ni


The physical plan shown through explain (both the text and json version) shows all the files to be read by the Scan node.   This creates a problem when the number of files is large (e.g hundreds) - I am unable to see the entire plan even after raising the sqlline maxwidth to 500K (default of 10K is too small).   This is a usability issue.  

We could provide an option - either through another version of Explain or through a session option - to not display the entire list of files.  Another option is to show the parent directory and the number of files it contains.  The  total number of files is shown already.
