Method Detail

schemaForTable

public static Schema schemaForTable(org.apache.spark.sql.SparkSession spark,
                                    java.lang.String name)

Returns a Schema for the given table with fresh field ids.

This creates a Schema for an existing table by looking up the table's schema with Spark and converting that schema. Spark/Hive partition columns are included in the schema.

Parameters:

spark - a Spark session

name - a table name and (optional) database

Returns:

a Schema for the table, if found

specForTable

public static PartitionSpec specForTable(org.apache.spark.sql.SparkSession spark,
                                         java.lang.String name)
                                  throws org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException

Returns a PartitionSpec for the given table.

This creates a partition spec for an existing table by looking up the table's schema and creating a spec with identity partitions for each partition column.

Parameters:

spark - a Spark session

name - a table name and (optional) database

Returns:

a PartitionSpec for the table

Throws:

org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException - if thrown by the Spark catalog

convert

public static org.apache.spark.sql.types.StructType convert(Schema schema)

Convert a Schema to a Spark type.

Parameters:

schema - a Schema

Returns:

the equivalent Spark type

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the type cannot be converted to Spark

convert

public static org.apache.spark.sql.types.DataType convert(Type type)

Convert a Type to a Spark type.

Parameters:

type - a Type

Returns:

the equivalent Spark type

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the type cannot be converted to Spark

convert

public static Schema convert(org.apache.spark.sql.types.StructType sparkType)

Convert a Spark struct to a Schema with new field ids.

This conversion assigns fresh ids.

Some data types are represented as the same Spark type. These are converted to a default type.

To convert using a reference schema for field ids and ambiguous types, use convert(Schema, StructType).

Parameters:

sparkType - a Spark StructType

Returns:

the equivalent Schema

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the type cannot be converted

convert

public static Type convert(org.apache.spark.sql.types.DataType sparkType)

Convert a Spark struct to a Type with new field ids.

This conversion assigns fresh ids.

Some data types are represented as the same Spark type. These are converted to a default type.

To convert using a reference schema for field ids and ambiguous types, use convert(Schema, StructType).

Parameters:

sparkType - a Spark DataType

Returns:

the equivalent Type

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the type cannot be converted

convert

public static Schema convert(Schema baseSchema,
                             org.apache.spark.sql.types.StructType sparkType)

Convert a Spark struct to a Schema based on the given schema.

This conversion does not assign new ids; it uses ids from the base schema.

Data types, field order, and nullability will match the spark type. This conversion may return a schema that is not compatible with base schema.

Parameters:

baseSchema - a Schema on which conversion is based

sparkType - a Spark StructType

Returns:

the equivalent Schema

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the type cannot be converted or there are missing ids

prune

public static Schema prune(Schema schema,
                           org.apache.spark.sql.types.StructType requestedType)

Prune columns from a Schema using a Spark type projection.

This requires that the Spark type is a projection of the Schema. Nullability and types must match.

Parameters:

schema - a Schema

requestedType - a projection of the Spark representation of the Schema

Returns:

a Schema corresponding to the Spark projection

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the Spark type does not match the Schema

prune

public static Schema prune(Schema schema,
                           org.apache.spark.sql.types.StructType requestedType,
                           java.util.List<Expression> filters)

Prune columns from a Schema using a Spark type projection.

This requires that the Spark type is a projection of the Schema. Nullability and types must match.

The filters list of Expression is used to ensure that columns referenced by filters are projected.

Parameters:

schema - a Schema

requestedType - a projection of the Spark representation of the Schema

filters - a list of filters

Returns:

a Schema corresponding to the Spark projection

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the Spark type does not match the Schema

prune

public static Schema prune(Schema schema,
                           org.apache.spark.sql.types.StructType requestedType,
                           Expression filter,
                           boolean caseSensitive)

Prune columns from a Schema using a Spark type projection.

This requires that the Spark type is a projection of the Schema. Nullability and types must match.

The filters list of Expression is used to ensure that columns referenced by filters are projected.

Parameters:

schema - a Schema

requestedType - a projection of the Spark representation of the Schema

filter - a filters

Returns:

a Schema corresponding to the Spark projection

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the Spark type does not match the Schema
