[jira] [Updated] (SPARK-54697) Read/Write proleptic dates older than 1582-10-04 via Hive/Spark for interoperability

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-54697?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Naresh P R updated SPARK-54697:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
eg., 
{code:java}
create external table test_calendar (writerType string, inputDate date) stored as parquet;
INSERT INTO test.test_calendar values('spark-corrected', CAST('0685-04-12' AS DATE)), ('spark-corrected', CAST('1582-10-04' AS DATE)); {code}
Hive writes a flag in parquet metadata ({*}writer.date.proleptic{*}) which helps Hive-Parquet readers to decide whether the date is in hybrid or proleptic. *hive.parquet.date.proleptic.gregorian* is used in writer flow which adds *writer.date.proleptic* = true/false on the parquet file metadata.

 

Setting *hive.parquet.date.proleptic.gregorian=true/false* while reading the files doesn’t not have any effect, Hive parquet read depends on *writer.date.proleptic* file specific metadata config on each individual file.

 

Its better if Spark can comply with Hive *writer.date.proleptic* meta config. (ie., Spark writer should add writer.date.proleptic=true/false in parquet file metadata and consider the same metadata config while reading in spark instead of relying on spark.sql.parquet.datetimeRebaseModeInRead/ spark.sql.parquet.datetimeRebaseModeInWrite as LEGACY/CORRECTED. Or have a better a common ground so that all reads know whether the dates are Hybrid or Gregorian.

 

Without this common ground, Hive written files will show wrong results in Spark & Spark written files will show wrong results in Hive.

Or have a better a common ground so that all reads know whether the dates are Julian or Gregorian.

 

Without this common ground, Hive written files will show wrong results in Spark & Spark written files will show wrong results in Hive.
