BigQuery: Add support for configuring Hive partitioning options #9610
Description
As a BigQuery client user, I would like to have an easy way of configuring Hive partitioning options.
I would like a new HivePartitioningOptions class for setting the tables' external data config as defined by the API.

Hi plamut,
I require this feature right now, is there a way i can do this using existing client library?
If so can you please help or suggest alternative.
TIA

A pull request that will add this feature will probably be merged in the next few days (cc: @tswast). When merged, you can then install a pre-release version of the BigQuery client with a GitHub link pointing to that specific commit (at least until a new version of the client is released).
Would that work for you?

I ended up using your code from pull request for my quick fix. This saved me a lot of time. Thanks @plamut .

@akmittal006 Glad to hear that that it fixed your problem!
Just make sure to switch to a regular install once this feature is released in order to potentially benefit from other new features and bugfixes.
