-----------------------------------------------------------------
I could try and look into this. Could someone validate that this feature is
still needed ?
[~enrush] It would also be helpful if you could provide a code example
illustrating how the {{PartitionTransformer}} would be used.

> Developers API for Transformers beyond UnaryTransformer
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-27249
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27249
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: ML
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Everett Rush
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: starter
> Original Estimate: 96h
> Remaining Estimate: 96h
>
> It would be nice to have a developers' API for dataset transformations that
> need more than one column from a row (ie UnaryTransformer inputs one column
> and outputs one column) or that contain objects too expensive to initialize
> repeatedly in a UDF such as a database connection.
>
> Design:
> Abstract class PartitionTransformer extends Transformer and defines the
> partition transformation function as Iterator[Row] => Iterator[Row]
> NB: This parallels the UnaryTransformer createTransformFunc method
>
> When developers subclass this transformer, they can provide their own schema
> for the output Row in which case the PartitionTransformer creates a row
> encoder and executes the transformation. Alternatively the developer can set
> output Datatype and output col name. Then the PartitionTransformer class will
> create a new schema, a row encoder, and execute the transformation.
