Ahmet Altay commented on BEAM-2653:
-----------------------------------
[~srfrnk] Could you describe what are you trying to accomplish?
{{OrderByKey}} in Java is a comparator. In Python we do not have a special
{{KV}} class, instead there is {{(key, values)}} tuples. It is possible to
write a simple function that compares two of such tuples by the key. Within the
context of combiners, combiners can take a function like as argument for
comparison.
> Python SDK missing OrderByKey

> Key: BEAM-2653
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-2653
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: beam-model, sdk-py
> Environment: Python SDK
> Reporter: Shahar Frank
> Priority: Critical
>
> Trying to sort a collection by key.
> The Java SDK has this implementation:
> https://beam.apache.org/documentation/sdks/javadoc/2.0.0/org/apache/beam/sdk/values/KV.OrderByKey.html
> But it seems to be missing in the Python SDK.
