hive_utils

Utilities for accessing and using hive with python.

Installing

You can install hive_utils through pip or easy-install:

pip install hive_utils

Or you can download the latest development version, which may contain new features.

Using hive_utils

hive_utils allows you to access hive with an API that is similar to MySQL-python:

query = """
    SELECT country, count(1) AS cnt
    FROM User
    GROUP BY country
"""
hive_client = hive_utils.HiveClient(
    server=config['HOST'],
    port=config['PORT'],
    db=config['NAME'],
)
for row in hive_client.execute(query):
    print '%s: %s' % (row['country'], row['cnt'])
