["Dmitriy V. Ryaboy (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2143?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Dmitriy V. Ryaboy updated PIG-2143:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: PIG-2143.diff

Attached patch adds the code for treating an optional second parameter as a list of arguments.
It also moves PigStorageSchema code into PigStorage, controlled by a '-schema' flag, and deprecates PigStorageSchema (no plans to remove it completely yet).

I plan to add the compression and overwrite flags as well in this ticket, consider this an early draft.

> 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?)
