We have loaded this file into Pig with a relation named date_data as given below.

grunt> date_data = LOAD 'hdfs://localhost:9000/pig_data/wikitechy_date.txt' USING PigStorage(',')
   as (id:int,date:chararray);

   as (date_time:DateTime );
  
grunt> Dump todate_data;

(1980-06-20T10:22:00.000+05:30) 
(1990-12-19T03:11:44.000+05:30) 
  • Now we get the year from the date-of-birth of each employee using the GetYear() function and store it in the relation named getyear_data.
grunt> getyear_data = foreach todate_data generate (date_time), GetYear(date_time);
