[jira] [Created] (HIVE-18785) Make JSON Serde First-Class Serde

["BELUGA BEHR (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

BELUGA BEHR created HIVE-18785:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Make JSON Serde First-Class Serde
                 Key: HIVE-18785
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18785
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Serializers/Deserializers
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: BELUGA BEHR


According to the [Hive SerDe Docs|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-RowFormats&SerDe], there are some extra steps involved in getting the JSON SerDe to work:

{quote}
ROW FORMAT SERDE 
'org.apache.hive.hcatalog.data.JsonSerDe' 
STORED AS TEXTFILE

In some distributions, a reference to hive-hcatalog-core.jar is required.
ADD JAR /usr/lib/hive-hcatalog/lib/hive-hcatalog-core.jar;
{quote}

I would like to propose that we move this SerDe into first-class status:

{{STORED AS JSONFILE}}

The user should have to perform no additional steps to use this SerDe.
