Can i use as struct variable as a column?

[hengshan123]

When i use com.esri.hadoop.hive.serde.GeoJsonSerDe as serde method. i find i can't create a table use struct column.

Currently the {Esri,Geo}JsonSerDe supports only primitive field types. The Spatial-framework-for-Hadoop is open-source and contributions are welcome. The code change would start with BaseJsonSerDe.initialize and BaseJsonSerDe.generateJsonFromValue and BaseJsonSerDe.setRowFieldFromParser.

Per my understanding I can't also create a column from primitive field, not contained within "properties' object (for GeoJson). This is too inconvenient for typical OpenStreetMap GeoJson, where osm_id and osm_type (just for example) are both top level properties, at the same level as 'geometry'.

I.e., for sample geojson like this:

{ "osm_id": 123 , "type": "Feature" , "geometry": ... , "properties": { "name": "..." } }

I can create Hive columns from "properties" only, not from osm_id.
