Mocking such a function so that it produces a sequence is not simple. Indeed, spark is a parallel computing engine and accessing the data in sequence is therefore complicated.
Here is a solution you could try.
Let's define a function that zips a dataframe:
def zip(df : DataFrame, name : String) = {
df.withColumn(name, monotonically_increasing_id)
}
Then let's rewrite the function we want to test using this zip function by default:
def fun(df : DataFrame,
zipFun : (DataFrame, String) => DataFrame = zip) : DataFrame = {
zipFun(df, "id_row")
}
// let 's see what it does
fun(spark.range(5).toDF).show()
+---+----------+
| id| id_row|
+---+----------+
| 0| 0|
| 1| 1|
| 2|8589934592|
| 3|8589934593|
| 4|8589934594|
+---+----------+
It's the same as before, let's write a new function that uses zipWithIndex
from the RDD API. It's a bit tedious because we have to go back and forth between the two APIs.
def zip2(df : DataFrame, name : String) = {
val rdd = df.rdd.zipWithIndex
.map{ case (row, i) => Row.fromSeq(row.toSeq :+ i) }
val newSchema = df.schema.add(StructField(name, LongType, false))
df.sparkSession.createDataFrame(rdd, newSchema)
}
fun(spark.range(5).toDF, zip2)
+---+------+
| id|id_row|
+---+------+
| 0| 0|
| 1| 1|
| 2| 2|
| 3| 3|
| 4| 4|
+---+------+
You can adapt zip2
, for instance multiplying i
by 2, to get what you want.
