Antoine Pitrou updated ARROW-3850: ---------------------------------- Component/s: Python > [Python] Support MapType and StructType for enhanced PySpark integration > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: ARROW-3850 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3850 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Python > Affects Versions: 0.11.1 > Reporter: Florian Wilhelm > Priority: Major > > It would be great to support MapType and (nested) StructType in Arrow so that > PySpark can make use of it. > > Quite often as in my use-case in Hive table cells are also complex types > saved. Currently it's not possible to user the new > {{[pandas_udf|https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/api/python/pyspark.sql.html?highlight=explode#pyspark.sql.functions.pandas_udf]}} > decorator which internally uses Arrow to generate a UDF for columns with > complex types. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
