Squirrel Jdbc Driver

 admin



MapR provides a downloadable Drill JDBC driver that you can use on all platforms to connect BI tools, such as SQuirreL and Spotfire, to Drill. Drill also includes an embedded JDBC driver. Using the Drill JDBC Driver with SQuirreL. You can use the JDBC driver to connect to Drill from SQuirrel and run SQL queries. Verify that your system meets the prerequisites and then follow the steps listed. Note: Drill interprets a wildcard in an SQL query as a multiline comment (/./), which SQuirreL supports. SQuirreL SQL Client is a graphical Java program that will allow you to view the structure of a JDBC compliant database, browse the data in tables, issue SQL commands etc. You need to be running at least version 1.3 of Java. Some people have had problems with Java 1.3.0 so it is recommended that you use at least Java 1.3.1. Java 1.4 is preferred.

    • Download driver (*.jar file) from Maven Central (https://search.maven.org/#search%7Cgav%7C1%7Cg%3A%22com.microsoft.sqlserver%22%20AND%20a%3A%22mssql-jdbc%22)
    • Move jar file to Lib folder (In MAC: /Applications/SQuirreLSQL.app/Contents/Resources/Java/lib/)
    • Open Squirrel SQL
    • Check that you see 'Microsoft MSSQL Server JDBC Driver' in the drivers list

You can also use ' jTDS Microsoft SQL' (http://jtds.sourceforge.net/) as above

SQuirreL SQL is an open source tool that acts as a Hive client. You can download this universal SQL client from the SourceForge website. It provides a user interface to Hive and simplifies the tasks of querying large tables and analyzing data with Apache Hive.

The figure illustrates how the Hive architecture would work when using tools such as SQuirreL.

You can see that the SQuirreL client uses the JDBC APIs to pass commands to the Hive Driver by way of the Server.

Follow these steps to get SQuirreL running:

  1. Start the Hive Thrift Server using the command lsiting:

  2. Download the latest SQuirreL distribution from the SourceForge site into a directory of your choice.

  3. Uncompress the SQuirreL package using the gunzip command and expand the archive using the tar command.

  4. Change to the new SQuirreL release directory and start the tool using the following command.

    Note that the instructions for including the Hadoop core .jar file may differ depending on the Hadoop release. In this case, the Hadoop .jar file was named hadoop-core-1.2.1.jar, so including $HADOOP_HOME/hadoop-*-core.jar per the online instructions was incorrect.

This is all that’s required to begin using the SQuirreL graphical user interface. The following figure shows some HiveQL commands running against the Hive Driver — similar to the commands you ran earlier, with the CLI.

The Apache Hive 0.11 release also includes a new Hive Thrift Server called HiveServer2. When configured correctly, HiveServer2 can support multiple clients (a CLI client and a SQuirreL client at the same time, for example) and it provides better security.
