在spark数据帧离开外连接后用null替换空值

Question

I have two dataframes called left and right .

scala> left.printSchema
root
|-- user_uid: double (nullable = true)
|-- labelVal: double (nullable = true)
|-- probability_score: double (nullable = true)

scala> right.printSchema
root
|-- user_uid: double (nullable = false)
|-- real_labelVal: double (nullable = false)

Then, I join them to get the joined Dataframe. It is a left outer join . Anyone interested in the natjoin function can find it here.

https://gist.github.com/anonymous/f02bd79528ac75f57ae8

scala> val joinedData = natjoin(predictionDataFrame, labeledObservedDataFrame, "left_outer")

scala> joinedData.printSchema
|-- user_uid: double (nullable = true)
|-- labelVal: double (nullable = true)
|-- probability_score: double (nullable = true)
|-- real_labelVal: double (nullable = false)

Since it is a left outer join, the real_labelVal column has nulls when user_uid is not present in right.

scala> val realLabelVal = joinedData.select("real_labelval").distinct.collect
realLabelVal: Array[org.apache.spark.sql.Row] = Array([0.0], [null])

I want to replace the null values in the realLabelVal column with 1.0.

Currently I do the following:

1. I find the index of real_labelval column and use the spark.sql.Row API to set the nulls to 1.0. (This gives me a RDD[Row])
2. Then I apply the schema of the joined dataframe to get the cleaned dataframe.

The code is as follows:

 val real_labelval_index = 3
 def replaceNull(row: Row) = {
    val rowArray = row.toSeq.toArray
     rowArray(real_labelval_index) = 1.0
     Row.fromSeq(rowArray)
 }

 val cleanRowRDD = joinedData.map(row => if (row.isNullAt(real_labelval_index)) replaceNull(row) else row)
 val cleanJoined = sqlContext.createDataFrame(cleanRowRdd, joinedData.schema)

Is there an elegant or efficient way to do this?

Goolging hasn't helped much. Thanks in advance.

你尝试过使用na吗？

joinedData.na.fill(1.0, Seq("real_labelval"))
