I have two Spark DataFrames:
cities
DataFrame with the following column:
city
-----
London
Austin
bigCities
DataFrame with the following column:
name
------
London
Cairo
I need to transform DataFrame cities
and add an additional Boolean column there: bigCity
Value of this column must be calculated based on the following condition "cities.city IN bigCities.name"
I can do this in the following way(with a static bigCities collection):
cities.createOrReplaceTempView("cities")
var resultDf = spark.sql("SELECT city, CASE WHEN city IN ['London', 'Cairo'] THEN 'Y' ELSE 'N' END AS bigCity FROM cities")
but I don't know how to replace the static bigCities collection ['London', 'Cairo']
with bigCities
DataFrame in the query. I want to use bigCities
as the reference data in the query.
Please advise how to achieve this.

You can use collect_list() on the the bigCities table. Check this out
scala> val df_city = Seq(("London"),("Austin")).toDF("city")
df_city: org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame = [city: string]
scala> val df_bigCities = Seq(("London"),("Cairo")).toDF("name")
df_bigCities: org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame = [name: string]
scala> df_city.createOrReplaceTempView("cities")
scala> df_bigCities.createOrReplaceTempView("bigCities")
scala> spark.sql(" select city, case when array_contains((select collect_list(name) from bigcities),city) then 'Y' else 'N' end as bigCity from cities").show(false)
+------+-------+
|city |bigCity|
+------+-------+
|London|Y |
|Austin|N |
+------+-------+

If the dataset is big, you can use collect_set which will be more efficient.
scala> spark.sql(" select city, case when array_contains((select collect_set(name) from bigcities),city) then 'Y' else 'N' end as bigCity from cities").show(false)
+------+-------+
|city |bigCity|
+------+-------+
|London|Y |
|Austin|N |
+------+-------+

val df = cities.join(bigCities, $"name".equalTo($"city"), "leftouter").
withColumn("bigCity", when($"name".isNull, "N").otherwise("Y")).
drop("name")
