Set Hive TBLPROPERTIES using (py)Spark










0














I need to set a custom property in one of my Hive tables using pySpark.
Normally, I would just run this command in any Hive interface to do it:



ALTER TABLE table_name SET TBLPROPERTIES ('key1'='value1');



But the question is, can I accomplish the same within a pySpark script?



Thanks!

          Well, that was actually easy... it can be set using sqlContext in pySpark:



          sqlContext.sql("ALTER TABLE table_name SET TBLPROPERTIES('key1' = 'value1')")



          It will return an empty DataFrame: DataFrame

          But the property is actually present on the target table. It can be similarly retrieved using:



          sqlContext.sql("SHOW TBLPROPERTIES table_name('key1')").collect()[0].asDict()



          'value': u'value1'
