Aggregate Functions ExamplesΒΆ
Let us perform few tasks to understand the usage of aggregate functions.
Get all the employees details who are making more than average department salary expense.
Get all the employees details who are making less than 50% of the highest salaries employee in each department.
Let us start spark context for this Notebook so that we can execute the code provided. You can sign up for our 10 node state of the art cluster/labs to learn Spark SQL using our unique integrated LMS.
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession
import getpass
username = getpass.getuser()
spark = SparkSession. \
builder. \
config('spark.ui.port', '0'). \
config("spark.sql.warehouse.dir", f"/user/{username}/warehouse"). \
enableHiveSupport(). \
appName(f'{username} | Python - Windowing Functions'). \
master('yarn'). \
getOrCreate()
If you are going to use CLIs, you can use Spark SQL using one of the 3 approaches.
Using Spark SQL
spark2-sql \
--master yarn \
--conf spark.ui.port=0 \
--conf spark.sql.warehouse.dir=/user/${USER}/warehouse
Using Scala
spark2-shell \
--master yarn \
--conf spark.ui.port=0 \
--conf spark.sql.warehouse.dir=/user/${USER}/warehouse
Using Pyspark
pyspark2 \
--master yarn \
--conf spark.ui.port=0 \
--conf spark.sql.warehouse.dir=/user/${USER}/warehouse
First let us understand relevance of these functions using
employeesdata set.
employeesPath = '/public/hr_db/employees'
employees = spark. \
read. \
format('csv'). \
option('sep', '\t'). \
schema('''employee_id INT,

'''). \

Let us say we want to compare individual salary with department wise salary expense.
Here is one of the approach which require self join.
Compute department wise expense usig
groupByandagg.Join with employees again on department_id.

department_expense = employees. \
groupBy('department_id'). \
agg(sum('salary').alias('expense'))

However, using this approach is not very efficient and also overly complicated. Windowing functions actually simplify the logic and also runs efficiently
Now let us get into the details related to Windowing functions.
Main package
pyspark.sql.windowIt has classes such as
WindowandWindowSpecWindowhave APIs such aspartitionBy,orderByetcThese APIs (such as
partitionBy) returnWindowSpecobject. We can passWindowSpecobject to over on functions such asrank(),dense_rank(),sum()etcSyntax:
sum().over(spec)wherespec = Window.partitionBy('ColumnName')

CLASSES

Window
WindowSpec
class Window(builtins.object)
| Utility functions for defining window in DataFrames.
|
| For example:
|
| >>> # ORDER BY date ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND CURRENT ROW
| >>> window = Window.orderBy("date").rowsBetween(Window.unboundedPreceding, Window.currentRow)
|
| >>> # PARTITION BY country ORDER BY date RANGE BETWEEN 3 PRECEDING AND 3 FOLLOWING
| >>> window = Window.orderBy("date").partitionBy("country").rangeBetween(-3, 3)
|
| .. note:: When ordering is not defined, an unbounded window frame (rowFrame,
| unboundedPreceding, unboundedFollowing) is used by default. When ordering is defined,
| a growing window frame (rangeFrame, unboundedPreceding, currentRow) is used by default.
|
| .. note:: Experimental
|
| .. versionadded:: 1.4
|
| Static methods defined here:
|
| orderBy(*cols)
| Creates a :class:`WindowSpec` with the ordering defined.
|
| .. versionadded:: 1.4
|
| partitionBy(*cols)
| Creates a :class:`WindowSpec` with the partitioning defined.
|
| .. versionadded:: 1.4
|
| rangeBetween(start, end)
| Creates a :class:`WindowSpec` with the frame boundaries defined,
| from `start` (inclusive) to `end` (inclusive).
|
| Both `start` and `end` are relative from the current row. For example,
| "0" means "current row", while "-1" means one off before the current row,
| and "5" means the five off after the current row.
|
| We recommend users use ``Window.unboundedPreceding``, ``Window.unboundedFollowing``,
| and ``Window.currentRow`` to specify special boundary values, rather than using integral
| values directly.
|
| :param start: boundary start, inclusive.
| The frame is unbounded if this is ``Window.unboundedPreceding``, or
| any value less than or equal to max(-sys.maxsize, -9223372036854775808).
| :param end: boundary end, inclusive.
| The frame is unbounded if this is ``Window.unboundedFollowing``, or
| any value greater than or equal to min(sys.maxsize, 9223372036854775807).
|
| .. versionadded:: 2.1
|
| rowsBetween(start, end)
| Creates a :class:`WindowSpec` with the frame boundaries defined,
| from `start` (inclusive) to `end` (inclusive).
|
| Both `start` and `end` are relative positions from the current row.
| For example, "0" means "current row", while "-1" means the row before
| the current row, and "5" means the fifth row after the current row.
