Question

i wanna to simulate different user to get their hive table data, however it seems that the env is always keep the original value. what should i do to correct it.

#!/bin/sh
exec scala -savecompiled "$0" "$@"
!#

import scala.sys.process._
val Array(db, table, user) = args
System.setProperty("HADOOP_USER_NAME", user)
val command = Seq("hive", "-e",
f"""SELECT * FROM `${db}`.`${table}` limit 5000""")
println(command)
command.!

and the error is as follows

System.setProperty does not set environment variables. As you commented, you'll need to export the variable via the shell environment before starting the Scala process. Otherwise find a way to cause System.getenv() map to return the value you're trying to set
