odps-table: Create a table with partition and lifecycle.
$ create table ${table_name} (${col} ${type}) partitioned by (${col} ${type}) lifecycle ${days};
try on your machine

This command is used to create a new table in a database with a specific name and column. Let's break down each part of the command:

  • create table: This is the syntax used to create a new table.
  • ${table_name}: This is a placeholder for the name you want to give to the table. You would replace ${table_name} with the actual name you want to use.
  • (${col} ${type}): This specifies the column name and its data type that you want to create in the table. ${col} and ${type} are placeholders for the actual column name and data type you want to use.
  • partitioned by (${col} ${type}): This indicates that the table will be partitioned based on a specific column. It means that the data in the table will be physically divided based on the values in this column, which can improve query performance.
  • lifecycle ${days}: This specifies the lifecycle of the table, in terms of the number of days it will be retained in the database. ${days} is a placeholder for the actual number of days you want to set for the table's lifecycle.

In summary, this command is creating a new table with a specified name and column, partitioning the table based on a specific column, and defining a lifecycle for the table.
