rdblue commented on issue #279: Transforming timestamp to date should produce 
date
URL: 
https://github.com/apache/incubator-iceberg/issues/279#issuecomment-521322801
 
 
   Sorry for the confusion. I'm talking about the Iceberg date type, 
`Types.DateType.get()`. The transform implementation is still going to return a 
Java `Integer` because that's how dates are represented in Iceberg metadata: 
the number of days from the Unix epoch.
   
   This change would primarily just update `getResultType` and return 
`DateType.get()` when the granularity is `ChronoUnit.DAYS`. That will cause the 
partition tuple's field type to be a date, which should also cause the metadata 
table to display formatted dates instead of the day ordinal in Spark.
