Hive中的表分析函数接受零个或多个输入，然后产生多列或多行输出。
1.explode函数
explode函数以array类型数据输入，然后对数组中的数据进行迭代，返回多行结果，一行一个数组元素值
ARRAY函数是将一列输入转换成一个数组输出。
hive (jimdb)> SELECT ARRAY(1,2,3) FROM dual;
OK
_c0
[1,2,3]
Time taken: 0.448 seconds, Fetched: 1 row(s)
SELECT explode(array(1,2,3)) AS element;
hive (jimdb)> SELECT explode(array(1,2,3)) AS element;
OK
element
1
2
3
Time taken: 0.327 seconds, Fetched: 3 row(s)
创建一张测试表单：
CREATE TABLE udtf_test(name STRING,subordinates ARRAY<STRING>)
ROW FORMAT DELIMITED
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ‘\t‘
COLLECTION ITEMS TERMINATED BY ‘,‘;
hive (jimdb)> select * from udtf_test;
OK
udtf_test.name udtf_test.subordinates
jim5 ["james","datacloase"]
jim4 ["james","datacloase"]
jim3 ["james","datacloase"]
jim2 ["james","datacloase"]
jim ["james","datacloase"]
Time taken: 0.348 seconds, Fetched: 5 row(s)
我执行下面这条语句，希望将字段subordinates拆分开，新生成一列，但是语句报错：
select name,explode(subordinates) from udtf_test;
hive (jimdb)> select name,explode(subordinates) from udtf_test;
FAILED: SemanticException [Error 10081]: UDTF‘s are not supported outside the SELECT clause, nor nested in expressions
Hive的表生成函数只是生成了一种数据的展示方式，而无法在表中产生一个其他的列。
因此这块需要使用LATERAL VIEW功能来进行处理。LATERAL VIEW将explode生成的结果当做一个视图来处理。
SELECT name, sub
FROM udtf_test
LATERAL VIEW explode(subordinates) subView AS sub;
在这里LATERAL VIEW 是将 explode结果转换成一个视图subView,在视图中的单列列名定义为sub，然后在查询的时候引用这个列名就能够查到。
hive (jimdb)> SELECT name, sub
> FROM udtf_test
> LATERAL VIEW explode(subordinates) subView AS sub;
OK
name sub
jim5 james
jim5 datacloase
jim4 james
jim4 datacloase
jim3 james
jim3 datacloase
jim2 james
jim2 datacloase
jim james
jim datacloase

创建一张测试表：
drop table test1;
create table test1(name string,phonenumber string)
ROW FORMAT DELIMITED
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ‘\t‘;
--需求是过滤掉该表中电话号码中0-9的某个数字在电话号码中出现6次及以上的号码，然后将正常的号码返回。
hive (jimdb)> select * from test1;
OK
test1.name test1.phonenumber
‘jim he‘ ‘18191512076‘
‘xiaosong‘ ‘18392988059‘
‘jingxianghua‘ ‘18118818818‘
‘donghualing‘ ‘17191919999‘
执行语句如下：
SELECT c.name,c.phonenumber
FROM
(SELECT dd.name,dd.phonenumber,MAX(dd.cn)
FROM (SELECT d.name,d.phonenumber,d.m, COUNT(*) cn
FROM (SELECT name,phonenumber,m FROM test1 LATERAL VIEW explode(split(phonenumber,‘‘)) n AS m) d
GROUP BY d.name,d.phonenumber,d.m) dd
GROUP BY dd.name,dd.phonenumber HAVING MAX(dd.cn) <=5) c;
hive (jimdb)> SELECT c.name,c.phonenumber
> FROM
> (SELECT dd.name,dd.phonenumber,MAX(dd.cn)
> FROM (SELECT d.name,d.phonenumber,d.m, COUNT(*) cn
> FROM (SELECT name,phonenumber,m FROM test1 LATERAL VIEW explode(split(phonenumber,‘‘)) n AS m) d
> GROUP BY d.name,d.phonenumber,d.m) dd
> GROUP BY dd.name,dd.phonenumber HAVING MAX(dd.cn) <=5) c;
