1、Hive不支持等值连接
•SQL中对两表内联可以写成:
•select * from dual a,dual b where a.key = b.key;
•Hive中应为
•select * from dual a join dual b on a.key = b.key;
而不是传统的格式:
SELECT t1.a1 as c1, t2.b1 as c2FROM t1, t2
WHERE t1.a2 = t2.b2
2、分号字符
•分号是SQL语句结束标记,在HiveQL中也是,但是在HiveQL中,对分号的识别没有那么智慧,例如:
•select concat(key,concat(';',key)) from dual;
•但HiveQL在解析语句时提示:
FAILED: Parse Error: line 0:-1 mismatched input '<EOF>' expecting ) in function specification
•解决的办法是,使用分号的八进制的ASCII码进行转义,那么上述语句应写成:
•select concat(key,concat(' 73',key)) from dual;
3、IS [NOT] NULL
•SQL中null代表空值, 值得警惕的是, 在HiveQL中String类型的字段若是空(empty)字符串, 即长度为0, 那么对它进行IS NULL的判断结果是False.
4、Hive不支持将数据插入现有的表或分区中,
仅支持覆盖重写整个表,示例如下:
INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE t1
SELECT * FROM t2;
5、hive不支持INSERT INTO 表 Values(), UPDATE, DELETE操作
这样的话,就不要很复杂的锁机制来读写数据。
INSERT INTO syntax is only available starting in version 0.8。INSERT INTO就是在表或分区中追加数据。
6、hive支持嵌入mapreduce程序,来处理复杂的逻辑
如:
FROM (
MAP doctext USING 'python wc_mapper.py' AS (word, cnt)
FROM docs
CLUSTER BY word
) a
REDUCE word, cnt USING 'python wc_reduce.py';
--doctext: 是输入
--word, cnt: 是map程序的输出
--CLUSTER BY: 将wordhash后,又作为reduce程序的输入
并且map程序、reduce程序可以单独使用,如:
FROM (
FROM session_table
SELECT sessionid, tstamp, data
DISTRIBUTE BY sessionid SORT BY tstamp
) a
REDUCE sessionid, tstamp, data USING 'session_reducer.sh';
-DISTRIBUTE BY: 用于给reduce程序分配行数据
7、hive支持将转换后的数据直接写入不同的表,还能写入分区、hdfs和本地目录
这样能免除多次扫描输入表的开销。
FROM t1
INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE t2
SELECT t3.c2, count(1)
FROM t3
WHERE t3.c1 <= 20
GROUP BY t3.c2
INSERT OVERWRITE DIRECTORY '/output_dir'
SELECT t3.c2, avg(t3.c1)
FROM t3
WHERE t3.c1 > 20 AND t3.c1 <= 30
GROUP BY t3.c2
INSERT OVERWRITE LOCAL DIRECTORY '/home/dir'
SELECT t3.c2, sum(t3.c1)
FROM t3
WHERE t3.c1 > 30
GROUP BY t3.c2;
示例示例
实际实例 创建一个表 CREATE TABLE u_data ( userid INT, movieid INT, rating INT, unixtime STRING) ROW FORMAT DELIMITED FIELDS TERMINATED BY '/t' STORED AS TEXTFILE; 下载示例数据文件,并解压缩 wget http://www.grouplens.org/system/files/ml-data.tar__0.gz tar xvzf ml-data.tar__0.gz 加载数据到表中: LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH 'ml-data/u.data' OVERWRITE INTO TABLE u_data; 统计数据总量: SELECT COUNT(1) FROM u_data; 现在做一些复杂的数据分析: 创建一个 weekday_mapper.py: 文件,作为数据按周进行分割 import sys import datetime for line in sys.stdin: line = line.strip() userid, movieid, rating, unixtime = line.split('/t') 生成数据的周信息 weekday = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(float(unixtime)).isoweekday() print '/t'.join([userid, movieid, rating, str(weekday)]) 使用映射脚本 //创建表,按分割符分割行中的字段值 CREATE TABLE u_data_new ( userid INT, movieid INT, rating INT, weekday INT) ROW FORMAT DELIMITED FIELDS TERMINATED BY '/t'; //将python文件加载到系统 add FILE weekday_mapper.py; 将数据按周进行分割 INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE u_data_new SELECT TRANSFORM (userid, movieid, rating, unixtime) USING 'python weekday_mapper.py' AS (userid, movieid, rating, weekday) FROM u_data; SELECT weekday, COUNT(1) FROM u_data_new GROUP BY weekday; 处理Apache Weblog 数据 将WEB日志先用正则表达式进行组合,再按需要的条件进行组合输入到表中 add jar ../build/contrib/hive_contrib.jar; CREATE TABLE apachelog ( host STRING, identity STRING, user STRING, time STRING, request STRING, status STRING, size STRING, referer STRING, agent STRING) ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.contrib.serde2.RegexSerDe' WITH SERDEPROPERTIES ( "input.regex" = "([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) (-|//[[^//]]*//]) ([^ /"]*|/"[^/"]*/") (-|[0-9]*) (-|[0-9]*)(?: ([^ /"]*|/"[^/"]*/") ([^ /"]*|/"[^/"]*/"))?", "output.format.string" = "%1$s %2$s %3$s %4$s %5$s %6$s %7$s %8$s %9$s" ) STORED AS TEXTFILE;
