通过多种方式将数据导入hive表

通过多种方式将数据导入hive表

1.通过外部表导入

用户在hive上建external表，建表的同时指定hdfs路径，在数据拷贝到指定hdfs路径的同时，也同时完成数据插入external表。
例如：

编辑文件test.txt
$ cat test.txt 
1       hello
2       world
3       test
4       case
字段之间以'\t'分割

启动hive：
$ hive

建external表：
hive> CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE MYTEST(num INT, name STRING)
    > COMMENT 'this is a test'
    > ROW FORMAT DELIMITED FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\t'
    > STORED AS TEXTFILE
    > LOCATION '/data/test';
OK
Time taken: 0.714 seconds
hive> show tables;
OK
mytest
partition_test
partition_test_input
test
Time taken: 0.07 seconds
hive> desc mytest ;
OK
num     int
name    string
Time taken: 0.121 seconds|

数据拷贝到hdfs：
$ Hadoop fs -put test.txt /data/test

查看hive表数据：
hive> select * from mytest;
OK
1       hello
2       world
3       test
4       case
Time taken: 0.375 seconds
hive> select num from mytest;
Total MapReduce jobs = 1
Launching Job 1 out of 1
......
Total MapReduce CPU Time Spent: 510 msec
OK
1
2
3
4
Time taken: 27.157 seconds

这种方式常常用于当hdfs上有一些历史数据，而我们需要在这些数据上做一些hive的操作时使用。这种方式避免了数据拷贝开销

2.从本地导入

数据不在hdfs上，直接从本地导入hive表

文件/home/work/test.txt内容同上

建表：
hive> CREATE TABLE MYTEST2(num INT, name STRING)
    > COMMENT 'this is a test2'                          
    > ROW FORMAT DELIMITED FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\t'     
    > STORED AS TEXTFILE;                                
OK
Time taken: 0.077 seconds

导数据入表：
hive> LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH '/home/work/test.txt' INTO TABLE MYTEST2;
Copying data from file:/home/work/test.txt
Copying file: file:/home/work/test.txt
Loading data to table default.mytest2
OK
Time taken: 0.24 seconds

查看数据：
hive> select * from MYTEST2;
OK
1       hello
2       world
3       test
4       case
Time taken: 0.11 seconds

这种方式导入的本地数据可以是一个文件，一个文件夹或者通配符，需要注意的是，如果是文件夹，文件夹内不能包含子目录，同样，通配符只能通配文件。

3.从hdfs导入

上述test.txt文件已经导入/data/test
则可以使用下述命令直接将数据导入hive表：
hive> CREATE TABLE MYTEST3(num INT, name STRING)
    > COMMENT "this is a test3"
    > ROW FORMAT DELIMITED FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\t'
    > STORED AS TEXTFILE;
OK
Time taken: 4.735 seconds
hive> LOAD DATA INPATH '/data/test/test.txt' INTO TABLE MYTEST3;
Loading data to table default.mytest3
OK
Time taken: 0.337 seconds
hive> select * from MYTEST3 ;
OK
1       hello
2       world
3       test
4       case
Time taken: 0.227 seconds

4. 从其它表导入数据：

hive> CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE MYTEST4(num INT) ;
OK
Time taken: 0.091 seconds
hive> FROM MYTEST3 test3
    > INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE MYTEST4
    > select test3.num where name='world';
