catap / jaql

Jaql is a query language designed for Javascript Object Notation (JSON), a data format that has become popular because of its simplicity and modeling flexibility. Jaql is primarily used to analyze large-scale semi-structured data. Core features include user extensibility and parallelism. In addition to modeling semi-structured data, JSON simplifies extensibility. Hadoop's Map-Reduce is used for parallelism.

Retain field order in record schemata #72

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
The fields in records are unordered in general, but we might want to store
a specific ordering of fields in the record schema. This ordering might be
exploited for pretty printing or, in general, serialization.

This issue involves updating the default printer for the jaqlshell to be 
schema-aware. 

Previously:
> { b: 1, a: 1 };
{
  "a": 1.
  "b": 1
}

Desired:
> { b: 1, a: 1 };
{
  "b": 1.
  "a": 1
}

Note that { a:1, b:1 } and { b:1, a:1 } are equal because record fields are
unordered; the old and desired outputs are thus equivalent.
