How to convert in hive a string representation of array of json objects back to array form

Question

I am working in hive / SQL. I have a column in my table with strings which represent an array of json objects. I need to convert the strings to arrays of JSON strings.

For example, I have this,

"[{a:1, b:1},{a:2, b:2}]"

And I want to get this:

["{a:1, b:1}","{a:2, b:2}"]

Tried casting the string as array but that didn't work. Any ideas on how do this in a smart way short of splitting by "},{"?

Answer 1

没关系，我最终只是将“}”上的字符串分割开，然后将“}”加回每一段，效果很好！
