Mapping from String to List in a Dataset












0















I'm trying to map from String to List<String>. How should I come up with Encoder<List<String>>?




Row data = RowFactory.create("123");
StructType schema = new StructType(new StructField{
new StructField("text", DataTypes.StringType, false, Metadata.empty())
});
Dataset<Row> df = spark.createDataFrame(data, schema)
.map(s -> Arrays.<String>asList(s), ???);


I've got this far:



I've found two answers myself. In both cases, you'll be using Encoders.bean() static method. But as for the first solution, you can just pass it List.class:



Row data = RowFactory.create("123");
StructType schema = new StructType(new StructField{
new StructField("text", DataTypes.StringType, false, Metadata.empty())
});
Dataset<Row> df = spark.createDataFrame(data, schema)
.map(s -> Arrays.<String>asList(s), Encoders.bean(List.class));


In the second solution (which is more concrete but a little ugly):



Row data = RowFactory.create("123");
StructType schema = new StructType(new StructField{
new StructField("text", DataTypes.StringType, false, Metadata.empty())
});
Dataset<Row> df = spark.createDataFrame(data, schema)
.map(s -> Arrays.<String>asList(s), Encoders.bean((Class<List<String>>) Collections.<String>emptyList().getClass()));


While both these solutions compile, but both of them face a runtime error:



Exception in thread "main" java.lang.AssertionError: assertion failed


And it refers to the .map() line.



The only way I've found around the problem is this:



Row data = RowFactory.create("123");
StructType schema = new StructType(new StructField{
new StructField("text", DataTypes.StringType, false, Metadata.empty())
});
Dataset<Row> df = spark.createDataFrame(data, schema)
.map(s -> new DummyList(s), Encoders.bean(DummyList.class));


While the DummyList is:



class DummyList implements Serializable
{
public ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<>();

public DummyList(String s) {
list.add(s);
}
}


Of course, this is just a hack. I won't be submitting this as the answer since I hope someone can come up with a elegant solution to this problem.
