Insert rows in table based on date logic - sql/hive

Need mysql/hive query which can insert new rows for missing dates from a date range for all IDs. Initial table looks like this:-

ID   Date        Value
1    01-Feb-2018  50 
2    02-Feb-2018  10

Let's assume start date=01-Feb-2018 and end date = 2-Feb-2018

The final table should like this

ID   Date         Value
1    01-Feb-2018  50
1    02-Feb-2018  0
2    01-Feb-2018  0
2    02-Feb-2018  10

Thanks in advance.

Substitute start_date and end_date variables in this example with yours and also see comments in the code:

set hivevar:start_date=2015-07-01; --replace with your start_date
set hivevar:end_date=current_date; --replace with your end_date

set hive.exec.parallel=true;
set hive.auto.convert.join=true; --this enables map-join
set hive.mapjoin.smalltable.filesize=25000000; --size of table to fit in memory

with date_range as 
(--this query generates date range, check it's output
select date_add ('${hivevar:start_date}',s.i) as dt 
  from ( select posexplode(split(space(datediff(${hivevar:end_date},'${hivevar:start_date}')),' ')) as (i,x) ) s
) 
--insert overwrite table your table  --uncomment this after checking if you need to overwrite your table
select s.ID, 
       s.dt,
       case when t.id is null then 0 else t.value end as value --take existing value for joined, 0 for not joined
       --also you can do simply NVL(t.value,0) as value if no NULLs are allowed in your_table.value
  from
       (--this subquery will give all combinations of ID and date, which should be the result
        select d.dt, IDs.ID
          from date_range d cross join (select distinct ID from your_table) IDs 
       ) s          
          left join           
       your_table t on s.dt=t.date and s.id=t.id --join with existing records, check your table column names  
 order by s.id, s.dt --remove this if ordering is not necessary
;
