DESCRIBE 语句

DESCRIBE 语句 #

DESCRIBE 语句用于描述表或视图的 schema，或catalog 的元数据，或 Flink 集群上的指定作业。

执行 DESCRIBE 语句 #

可以使用 TableEnvironment 的 executeSql() 方法执行 DESCRIBE 语句。如果 DESCRIBE 操作执行成功，executeSql() 方法会返回所有对象，否则会抛出异常。

以下示例展示了如何在 TableEnvironment 中执行一条 DESCRIBE 语句。

可以使用 TableEnvironment 的 executeSql() 方法执行 DESCRIBE 语句。如果 DESCRIBE 操作执行成功，executeSql() 方法会返回所有对象，否则会抛出异常。

以下示例展示了如何在 TableEnvironment 中执行一条 DESCRIBE 语句。

可以使用 TableEnvironment 的 execute_sql() 方法执行 DESCRIBE 语句。如果 DESCRIBE 操作执行成功，execute_sql() 方法会返回所有对象，否则会抛出异常。

以下示例展示了如何在 TableEnvironment 中执行一条 DESCRIBE 语句。

DESCRIBE 语句可以在 SQL CLI 中执行。
