DataFusion extension DDL for CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE

Syntax:

CREATE
[ OR REPLACE ]
EXTERNAL TABLE
[ IF NOT EXISTS ]
<TABLE_NAME>[ (<column_definition>) ]
STORED AS <file_type>
[ PARTITIONED BY (<column_definition list> | <column list>) ]
[ WITH ORDER (<ordered column list>)
[ OPTIONS (<key_value_list>) ]
LOCATION <literal>

<column_definition> := (<column_name> <data_type>, ...)

<column_list> := (<column_name>, ...)

<ordered_column_list> := (<column_name> <sort_clause>, ...)

<key_value_list> := (<literal> <literal, <literal> <literal>, ...)

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for CreateExternalTable

fn clone(&self) -> CreateExternalTable

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for CreateExternalTable

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for CreateExternalTable

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Eq for CreateExternalTable

impl PartialEq for CreateExternalTable

fn eq(&self, other: &CreateExternalTable) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
