["Raghu Angadi (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2143?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13064196#comment-13064196 ] 

Raghu Angadi commented on PIG-2143:
-----------------------------------

+1 looks good.

 - We could remove most of PigStorageSchema.java by invoking super(delimiter, "-schema");
  -- this will also let us remove JsonMetadata.java and tests for PigStorageSchema.

> I'd like to propose that we allow for a greater degree of customization in PigStorage.
> An incomplete list features that we might want to add:
> - flag to tell it to overwrite existing output if it exists
> - flag to tell it to compress output using gzip|bzip|lzo (currently this can be achieved by setting the directory name to end in .gz or .bz2, which is a bit awkward)
> - flag to tell it to store the schema and header (perhaps by merging in PigStorageSchema work?)
