About Hive SQL
hive-sql
This extension provides Hive SQL support for VSCode. It also provides some basic code snippets for operations such as creating a table, altering a table, or renaming columns.
The language specification is from the hive-sublime-text project, with slight modifications by me.
Features
Enables syntax highlighting and formatting for Hive SQL, including user-defined functions. To enable the extension on your file, either name the file with a .hql, .q, or .ql extension, or press F1, type 'Change Language Mode', and then choose HiveSQL.
The screenshot below is using the wonderful Monokai Dark Soda theme. This is my first extension, and contributions are welcome, via GitHub.
