如何加入二进制字段?

How to join on binary field?

在 Scala/Spark 中,我正在尝试执行以下操作:

val portCalls_Ports = 
  portCalls.join(ports, portCalls("port_id") === ports("id"), "inner")

但是我收到以下错误:

Exception in thread "main" org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: 
     binary type expression port_id cannot be used in join conditions;

确实是二进制类型:

root
 |-- id: binary (nullable = false)
 |-- port_id: binary (nullable = false)
     .
     .
     .

+--------------------+--------------------+
|                  id|             port_id|
+--------------------+--------------------+
|[FB 89 A0 FF AA 0...|[B2 B2 84 B9 52 2...|

原样ports("id")

我正在使用以下库:

scalaVersion := "2.11.11"
libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  // Spark dependencies
  "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-hive" % "1.6.2",
  "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-mllib" % "1.6.2",
  // Third-party libraries
  "postgresql" % "postgresql" % "9.1-901-1.jdbc4",
  "net.sf.jopt-simple" % "jopt-simple" % "5.0.3"
)

请注意,我正在使用 JDBC 读取数据库表。

解决此问题的最佳方法是什么?

Pre Spark 2.1.0,我知道的最佳解决方法是使用 base64 函数将二进制列转换为字符串,然后比较这些:

import org.apache.spark.sql.functions._

val portCalls_Ports =
  portCalls.join(ports, base64(portCalls("port_id")) === base64(ports("id")), "inner")
