I want to compare two columns in a Spark DataFrame
: if the value of a column ( attr_value
) is found in values of another ( attr_valuelist
) I want only that value to be kept. Otherwise, the column value should be null
.
For example, given the following input
id1 id2 attrname attr_value attr_valuelist
1 2 test Yes Yes, No
2 1 test1 No Yes, No
3 2 test2 value1 val1, Value1,value2
I would expect the following output
id1 id2 attrname attr_value attr_valuelist
1 2 test Yes Yes
2 1 test1 No No
3 2 test2 value1 Value1
can you try this code. I think it will work with that SQL contains case when.
val emptyRDD = sc.emptyRDD[Row]
var emptyDataframe = sqlContext.createDataFrame(emptyRDD, your_dataframe.schema)
your_dataframe.createOrReplaceTempView("tbl")
emptyDataframe = sqlContext.sql("select id1, id2, attrname, attr_value, case when
attr_valuelist like concat('%', attr_value, '%') then attr_value else
null end as attr_valuelist from tbl")
emptyDataframe.show
I assume, given your sample input, that the column with the search item contains a string while the search target is a sequence of strings. Also, I assume you're interested in case-insensitive search.
This is going to be the input (I added a column that would have yielded a null
to test the behavior of the UDF I wrote):
+---+---+--------+----------+----------------------+
|id1|id2|attrname|attr_value|attr_valuelist |
+---+---+--------+----------+----------------------+
|1 |2 |test |Yes |[Yes, No] |
|2 |1 |test1 |No |[Yes, No] |
|3 |2 |test2 |value1 |[val1, Value1, value2]|
|3 |2 |test2 |value1 |[val1, value2] |
+---+---+--------+----------+----------------------+
You can solve your problem with a very simple UDF.
val find = udf {
(item: String, collection: Seq[String]) =>
collection.find(_.toLowerCase == item.toLowerCase)
}
val df = spark.createDataFrame(Seq(
(1, 2, "test", "Yes", Seq("Yes", "No")),
(2, 1, "test1", "No", Seq("Yes", "No")),
(3, 2, "test2", "value1", Seq("val1", "Value1", "value2")),
(3, 2, "test2", "value1", Seq("val1", "value2"))
)).toDF("id1", "id2", "attrname", "attr_value", "attr_valuelist")
df.select(
$"id1", $"id2", $"attrname", $"attr_value",
find($"attr_value", $"attr_valuelist") as "attr_valuelist")
show
ing the output of the last command would yield the following output:
+---+---+--------+----------+--------------+
|id1|id2|attrname|attr_value|attr_valuelist|
+---+---+--------+----------+--------------+
| 1| 2| test| Yes| Yes|
| 2| 1| test1| No| No|
| 3| 2| test2| value1| Value1|
| 3| 2| test2| value1| null|
+---+---+--------+----------+--------------+
