如何使用Sqoop将Postgres表（几何格式）导入Hive？

Question

I have Postgres tables with Geometry type data.Now I am trying to import Postgres tables into Hive using Sqoop.Then its giving this errors,

sqoop import --connect jdbc:postgresql://192.168.1.130:5432/Analyst_Bangalore --username postgres --password track@123 --table state -m 1 --warehouse-dir /user/hive/warehouse/analytics.db

Anybody have any idea how to import geometry data into hive,please suggest me.Any input is appreciated.

Answer 1

Geometry datatype is not supported be default by Sqoop. You need to add it's mapping manually for Java( for POJO class ).

Add this tag in your code:

--map-column-java the_geom=String

Final command:

sqoop import \
 --connect jdbc:postgresql://192.168.1.130:5432/Analyst_Bangalore \
 --username postgres \
 --password track@123 \
 --map-column-java the_geom=String \
 --table state \
 -m 1 \
 --warehouse-dir /user/hive/warehouse/analytics.db

---

Add --map-column-hive the_geom=string if you using doing hive import .
