-- So, we prepare test data in the first section if possible.
CREATE TABLE t (key STRING, value DOUBLE);
INSERT INTO t VALUES
    ('a', 1.0), ('a', 2.0), ('b', 3.0), ('c', 4.0);

-- query output has 2 indents and it follows the `Dataset.showString`
-- format (right-aligned).
SELECT * FROM t;
  +---+-----+
  |key|value|
  +---+-----+
  |  a|  1.0|
  |  a|  2.0|
  |  b|  3.0|
  |  c|  4.0|

SELECT key, SUM(value)
    FROM t
    GROUP BY key;
  +---+----------+
  |key|sum(value)|
  +---+----------+
  |  c|       4.0|

Description

SHOW TABLE EXTENDED will show information for all tables matching the given regular expression. Output includes basic table information and file system information like Last Access, Created By, Type, Provider, Table Properties, Location, Serde Library, InputFormat, OutputFormat, Storage Properties, Partition Provider, Partition Columns and Schema.

If a partition specification is present, it outputs the given partition's file-system-specific information such as Partition Parameters and Partition Statistics. Note that a table regex cannot be used with a partition specification.

Syntax

{% highlight sql %} SHOW TABLE EXTENDED [ IN | FROM database_name ] LIKE 'identifier_with_wildcards' [ partition_spec ] {% endhighlight %}

Parameters

IN|FROM database_name
Specifies database name. If not provided, will use the current database.
LIKE string_pattern
Specifies the regular expression pattern that is used to filter out unwanted tables.
  • Except for `*` and `|` character, the pattern works like a regex.
  • `*` alone matches 0 or more characters and `|` is used to separate multiple different regexes, any of which can match.
  • The leading and trailing blanks are trimmed in the input pattern before processing.
partition_spec
An optional parameter that specifies a comma separated list of key and value pairs for partitions. Note that a table regex cannot be used with a partition specification.

Syntax: PARTITION ( partition_col_name [ = partition_col_val ] [ , ... ] )

Examples

{% highlight sql %} -- Assumes employee table created with partitioned by column grade CREATE TABLE employee(name STRING, grade INT) PARTITIONED BY (grade); INSERT INTO employee PARTITION (grade = 1) VALUES ('sam'); INSERT INTO employee PARTITION (grade = 2) VALUES ('suj');
