Python
无法修改单个嵌套字段.您必须重新创建整个结构.在这种特殊情况下,最简单的解决方案是使用演员表.
首先是一堆进口:
from collections import namedtuple
from pyspark.sql.functions import col
from pyspark.sql.types import (
ArrayType, LongType, StringType, StructField, StructType)
和示例数据:
Record = namedtuple("Record", ["a", "b", "c"])
df = sc.parallelize([([Record("foo", 1, 3)], )]).toDF(["array_field"])
让我们确认架构与您的情况相同:
df.printSchema()
root
|-- array_field: array (nullable = true)
| |-- element: struct (containsNull = true)
| | |-- a: string (nullable = true)
| | |-- b: long (nullable = true)
| | |-- c: long (nullable = true)
您可以将新模式定义为字符串:
str_schema = "array>"
df.select(col("array_field").cast(str_schema)).printSchema()
root
|-- array_field: array (nullable = true)
| |-- element: struct (containsNull = true)
| | |-- a_renamed: string (nullable = true)
| | |-- b: long (nullable = true)
| | |-- c: long (nullable = true)
或数据类型:
struct_schema = ArrayType(StructType([
StructField("a_renamed", StringType()),
StructField("b", LongType()),
StructField("c", LongType())
]))
df.select(col("array_field").cast(struct_schema)).printSchema()
root
|-- array_field: array (nullable = true)
| |-- element: struct (containsNull = true)
| | |-- a_renamed: string (nullable = true)
| | |-- b: long (nullable = true)
| | |-- c: long (nullable = true)
斯卡拉
Scala中可以使用相同的技术:
case class Record(a: String, b: Long, c: Long)
val df = Seq(Tuple1(Seq(Record("foo", 1, 3)))).toDF("array_field")
val strSchema = "array>"
df.select($"array_field".cast(strSchema))
要么
import org.apache.spark.sql.types._
val structSchema = ArrayType(StructType(Seq(
StructField("a_renamed", StringType),
StructField("b", LongType),
StructField("c", LongType)
)))
df.select($"array_field".cast(structSchema))
可能的改进:
如果您使用富有表现力的数据操作或JSON处理库,则可以更容易地将数据类型转储到dict或JSON字符串,并从那里获取它(例如,Python / toolz):
from toolz.curried import pipe, assoc_in, update_in, map
from operator import attrgetter
# Update name to "a_updated" if name is "a"
rename_field = update_in(
keys=["name"], func=lambda x: "a_updated" if x == "a" else x)
updated_schema = pipe(
# Get schema of the field as a dict
df.schema["array_field"].jsonValue(),
# Update fields with rename
update_in(
keys=["type", "elementType", "fields"],
func=lambda x: pipe(x, map(rename_field), list)),
# Load schema from dict
StructField.fromJson,
# Get data type
attrgetter("dataType"))
df.select(col("array_field").cast(updated_schema)).printSchema()
