复杂类型的模式演化

schema evolution of complex types

spark 中 arraysstructs(复杂类型)的模式演化状态如何?

我知道对于常规简单类型的 ORC 或 Parquet 工作得很好(添加一个新列)但到目前为止我找不到任何文档来满足我的需求。

我的用例是具有与此类似的结构:

user_id,date,[{event_time, foo, bar, baz, tag1, tag2, ... future_tag_n}, ...]

而且我希望能够向数组中的结构添加新字段。

Map(键值)复杂类型会导致效率低下吗?在那里我至少会确保添加新字段(标签)是灵活的。

case class BarFirst(baz:Int, foo:String)
case class BarSecond(baz:Int, foo:String, moreColumns:Int, oneMore:String)
case class BarSecondNullable(baz:Int, foo:String, moreColumns:Option[Int], oneMore:Option[String])
case class Foo(i:Int, date:String, events:Seq[BarFirst])
case class FooSecond(i:Int, date:String, events:Seq[BarSecond])
case class FooSecondNullable(i:Int, date:String, events:Seq[BarSecondNullable])
val dfInitial = Seq(Foo(1, "2019-01-01", Seq(BarFirst(1, "asdf")))).toDF
dfInitial.printSchema
dfInitial.show

 |-- date: string (nullable = true)

缺少其他列!为什么?

df.show
df.as[FooSecond].collect // AnalysisException: No such struct field moreColumns in baz, foo
df.as[FooSecondNullable].collect // AnalysisException: No such struct field moreColumns in baz, foo

此行为针对 spark 2.2.3_2.11 和 2.4.2_2.12.

进行了评估

在编辑后(如上)执行代码时,架构合并关闭,新列未加载。启用架构合并时:

val df = spark.read.option("mergeSchema", "true").parquet("my_df.parquet")
scala> df.printSchema
root
 |-- i: integer (nullable = true)
 |-- events: array (nullable = true)
 |    |-- element: struct (containsNull = true)
 |    |    |-- baz: integer (nullable = true)
 |    |    |-- foo: string (nullable = true)
 |    |    |-- moreColumns: integer (nullable = true)
 |    |    |-- oneMore: string (nullable = true)
 |-- date: date (nullable = true)

df.as[FooSecond].collect // 显然失败 NullPointerException 必须使用选项 df.as[FooSecondNullable].collect // 工作正常

现在使用配置单元

evolved.write.mode(SaveMode.Append).partitionBy("date").saveAsTable("my_df")

似乎工作正常(无一例外),但在尝试读取数据时:

spark.sql("describe my_df").show(false)
+-----------------------+---------------------------------+-------+
|col_name               |data_type                        |comment|
+-----------------------+---------------------------------+-------+
|i                      |int                              |null   |
|events                 |array<struct<baz:int,foo:string>>|null   |
|date                   |string                           |null   |
|# Partition Information|                                 |       |
|# col_name             |data_type                        |comment|
|date                   |string                           |null   |
+-----------------------+---------------------------------+-------+

当仅使用基本类型而不是结构数组时:

val first = Seq(Foo(1, "2019-01-01")).toDF
first.printSchema
first.write.partitionBy("dt").saveAsTable("df")
val evolved = Seq(FooEvolved(1,2, "2019-01-02")).toDF
evolved.printSchema
evolved.write.mode(SaveMode.Append).partitionBy("dt").saveAsTable("df")
evolved.write.mode(SaveMode.Append).partitionBy("dt").saveAsTable("df")
org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: The column number of the existing table default.df(struct<first:int,dt:string>) doesn't match the data schema(struct<first:int,second:int,dt:string>);

有明确的错误信息 问题:是否仍然可以在 Hive 中发展模式?或者是否需要手动调整模式?

结论

支持结构数组的模式演变,但在读取文件时必须打开合并选项,并且似乎只有在不使用 Hive 的情况下直接读取文件时才能开箱即用。

从配置单元读取时,只返回旧模式,因为写入新列时似乎被静默删除。

Schema evolution in parquet format(手动创建视图,一个额外的好处是 parquet 不受支持的模式演变(重命名,数据类型更改是可能的))看起来是一个有趣的替代方案,因为 merge-schema 选项设置为 true 会占用大量资源它适用于 Hadoop 上的所有 SQL 个引擎。
