SPRKSCL1133
org.apache.spark.sql.functions.least
Message: org.apache.spark.sql.functions.least has a workaround, see documentation for more info
Category: Warning
Description
This issue appears when the SMA detects a use of the org.apache.spark.sql.functions.least function, which has a workaround.
Scenario
Input
Below is an example of the org.apache.spark.sql.functions.least
function, first used with multiple column name as arguments and then with column objects.
val df = Seq((10, 20, 5), (15, 25, 30), (7, 14, 3)).toDF("value1", "value2", "value3")
val result1 = df.withColumn("least", least("value1", "value2", "value3"))
val result2 = df.withColumn("least", least(col("value1"), col("value2"), col("value3")))
Output
The SMA adds the EWI SPRKSCL1133
to the output code to let you know that this function is not fully supported by Snowpark, but it has a workaround.
val df = Seq((10, 20, 5), (15, 25, 30), (7, 14, 3)).toDF("value1", "value2", "value3")
/*EWI: SPRKSCL1133 => org.apache.spark.sql.functions.least has a workaround, see documentation for more info*/
val result1 = df.withColumn("least", least("value1", "value2", "value3"))
/*EWI: SPRKSCL1133 => org.apache.spark.sql.functions.least has a workaround, see documentation for more info*/
val result2 = df.withColumn("least", least(col("value1"), col("value2"), col("value3")))
Recommended fix
Snowpark has an equivalent least function that receives multiple column objects as arguments. For that reason, the Spark overload that receives multiple column objects as arguments is directly supported by Snowpark and does not require any changes.
For the overload that receives multiple string arguments, you can convert the strings into column objects using the com.snowflake.snowpark.functions.col function as a workaround.
val df = Seq((10, 20, 5), (15, 25, 30), (7, 14, 3)).toDF("value1", "value2", "value3")
val result1 = df.withColumn("least", least(col("value1"), col("value2"), col("value3")))
val result2 = df.withColumn("least", least(col("value1"), col("value2"), col("value3")))
