Beishao Cao created SPARK-43270:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Implement __dir__() in pyspark.sql.dataframe.DataFrame to 
include columns
                 Key: SPARK-43270
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-43270
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 3.5.0
            Reporter: Beishao Cao


Currently, {{df.|}} will only suggest the method of dataframe(see attached 
photo of databricks notebook), but {{df.column_name}} is also legal.

So we should override the parent {{__dir__}} method on Python {{DataFrame}} 
class to include column names. And the benefit of this is engine that uses 
{{dir()}} to generate autocomplete suggestions (e.g. IPython kernel, Databricks 
Notebooks) will suggest column names on the completion {{df.|}}
