[jira] [Created] (SPARK-14346) SHOW CREATE TABLE command (Native)

Xin Wu created SPARK-14346:
------------------------------

             Summary: SHOW CREATE TABLE command (Native)
                 Key: SPARK-14346
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14346
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Xin Wu


This command will return a CREATE TABLE command in SQL. Right now, we just throw exception (I was not sure how often people will use it). Since it is a pretty standalone work (generating a CREATE TABLE command based on the metadata of a table) and people may find it pretty useful, I am thinking to get it in 2.0. Hive's implementation can be found at https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/release-1.2.1/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/exec/DDLTask.java#L1898-L2126. The main difference for spark is that if we have a data source table, we should use Spark's syntax (CREATE TABLE ... USING ... OPTIONS) instead of Hive's syntax.
