[jira] [Created] (DRILL-1320) Allow storage plugin to query formatted files with no extention

Michael England created DRILL-1320:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow storage plugin to query formatted files with no extention
                 Key: DRILL-1320
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-1320
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Functions - Drill
            Reporter: Michael England
            Priority: Minor


I am pulling data in from a database into Hadoop using Sqoop. This creates .csv files that do not have any file extensions. I have looked at the Drill Wiki and tried to alter my storage plugin config by removing the "csv" format in the JSON and I have tried to leave empty quotes here too. I have found that whatever I try, Drill cannot find the 'table' (csv file) if there is no .csv file extension present. If I add this extension to the files, drill can find the table. 

Would it be possible to add the ability to set an 'empty' extention so csv/other separated files with no file extension can be queried without having to change the file name?

If this is already possible, please close this ticket.

Thanks,
Mike
