A lightweight, zero-dependency, developer-first engine for **field-to-field column lineage**, **Catalyst pre-flight compiler lints**, **multi-cloud security redaction**, and **interactive DAG visualization** in Apache Spark and PySpark.

Instead of heavy enterprise collectors that require external Kafka clusters, OpenLineage/Marquez servers, or JVM agent JARs, `sparklineage` runs directly inside your notebook, IDE, or Python process with **zero external infrastructure ($0 compute/server costs)**.

## 🎯 The Silent Crisis in Modern Data Engineering

Every engineer who has built pipelines in **Apache Spark**, **Databricks**, or **AWS EMR** knows the pattern:
- You spend days writing a multi-stage PySpark pipeline.
- You test on a small sample, and it passes in 30 seconds.
- You deploy to a 64-node cluster on production data.
- Two hours and **\$400 in cloud compute** later, the job abruptly crashes with:
  ```text
  java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
    at org.apache.spark.sql.execution.joins.SortMergeJoinExec...
  ```
- Or worse: the job doesn't fail, but it runs for 8 hours instead of 20 minutes because an unintended Cartesian cross-join blew up stage shuffle sizes from 10 GB to 50 TB.

When you run `df.explain()`, you are greeted by an unreadable wall of 800 lines of nested ASCII text. The Spark UI (`:4040`) only tells you what failed *after* you spent the cluster budget.

**`sparklineage` is the pre-flight compiler and linter for Spark: it inspects your Catalyst execution plan *before* jobs hit cluster compute.**

## 🚨 Pre-Flight Compiler Rules (What it Catches)

1. **`RULE01_CARTESIAN_HAZARD` [CRITICAL]**: Detects accidental Cartesian joins missing join predicates that cause O(N*M) stage blowups.
2. **`RULE02_BROADCAST_OPPORTUNITY` [WARNING]**: Detects SortMergeJoins on dimension tables under size thresholds that can eliminate cluster-wide shuffles with `broadcast(dim_df)`.
3. **`RULE03_LINEAGE_DEPTH_OVERFLOW` [CRITICAL]**: Warns when iterative DAGs exceed safe depth thresholds before the Catalyst optimizer triggers driver `StackOverflowError`.
4. **`RULE04_NON_PUSHDOWN_FILTER` [WARNING]**: Detects column type-casting inside `.filter()` clauses that invalidate partition and Parquet file pruning.
5. **`RULE05_REDUNDANT_EXCHANGE` [INFO]**: Highlights back-to-back cluster shuffle exchanges.

# Or install into active virtual environment
uv pip install sparklineage
```

Run instantly with **uvx** (Zero installation required!):
```bash
# Lint any directory or pipeline script in <120ms without installing anything:
uvx sparklineage lint ./pipelines

## 🚀 Copy-Pasteable Quickstart Examples

### 1. Native PySpark `df.lineage` Accessor & Interactive Execution DAG

Once `sparklineage` is imported, every PySpark DataFrame is automatically augmented with a native `.lineage` accessor:

```python
import sparklineage as sl

# 1. Native DataFrame accessor syntax:
df.lineage.display()        # Renders interactive SVG directly in Databricks or Jupyter
df.lineage.lint()           # Catches Cartesian joins & broadcast opportunities before action
df.lineage.columns          # Returns field-level column lineage map
df.lineage.to_mermaid()     # Generates Mermaid diagram markdown for PRs & documentation
df.lineage.save_html("dag.html")

# 2. Or use standard functional syntax:
inspector = sl.inspect(df)
inspector.display()
```

#### Visualizer Features:
- **Column Lineage Tracing**: Click any column to highlight its exact upstream lineage path while dimming unrelated operations.
- **Compiler Hazard Indicators**: Nodes with detected bottlenecks (e.g., Cartesian joins, un-broadcasted dimension tables) are flagged with actionable diagnostics and remediation code.
- **Search & Auto-Focus**: Quickly locate nodes, tables, or columns using the search bar.
- **Layout Options**: Switch between Horizontal (Pipeline Flow) and Vertical (Catalyst Tree) views.
- **Risk View**: Toggle between semantic operation types and execution risk categories.
- **Export Options**: One-click SVG download and Mermaid diagram generation.

### 2. Pre-Flight Linter as a Production CI/CD Barrier

Prevent runaway queries from ever being submitted to the cluster:

```python
import sparklineage as sl

# Build your DataFrame pipeline
df_orders = spark.read.table("orders")
df_customers = spark.read.table("customers")
df_joined = df_orders.join(df_customers) # Oops: Missing join condition!

# Run pre-flight compiler check (executes in 0.02 ms)
report = sl.lint(df_joined)

if report.has_critical:
    print(report.to_terminal_summary())
    raise RuntimeError("Aborting job: Critical Cartesian Join hazard detected!")
```

Sample Terminal Output:
```text
╭─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ ⚡ sparklineage • Plan Diagnostic & Lineage Summary          │
╰─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯

📊 Plan Metrics:
  • Plan Depth:       8 stages
  • Shuffle Stages:   2
  • Joins Analyzed:   1
  • Issues Detected:  1 (1 Critical, 0 Warnings)

🚨 Pre-Flight Compiler Warnings:
  [CRITICAL] Cartesian / Cross Join Detected
    Problem: Node 'Join' performs a Cartesian cross-join without join predicates.
    Fix:     Add an explicit join condition to avoid O(N*M) stage explosion.
```

### 3. Field-to-Field Column Lineage Resolution

Trace how derived business metrics are computed back to raw tables:

```python
import pyspark.sql.functions as F
import sparklineage as sl

# Complex pipeline with mathematical derivations
transformed_df = (
    df_raw
    .withColumn("item_total", F.col("unit_price") * F.col("quantity"))
    .withColumn("final_revenue", F.col("item_total") - F.col("discount"))
)

inspector = sl.inspect(transformed_df)
lineage = inspector.get_column_lineage()

# View exact origins and transformations for any column
rev_lineage = lineage["final_revenue"]
print("Upstream Sources:", rev_lineage.upstream_columns)
# -> Upstream Sources: ['unit_price', 'quantity', 'discount']

print("Applied Transformations:", rev_lineage.transformations)
# -> Applied Transformations: ['(unit_price * quantity)', '(item_total - discount)']
```

---

### 4. Zero-Spark Pure Python Plan Analysis (No Spark Installed)

You don't even need PySpark installed to audit Catalyst plans. Analyze plan strings saved from logs or CI runs:

```python
from sparklineage import inspect, lint

plan_str = """
== Parsed Logical Plan ==
'Project ['total_rev]
+- 'Join Inner
   :- 'UnresolvedRelation [orders]
   +- 'UnresolvedRelation [dim_dates]
"""

# Instant analysis in 24 microseconds
report = lint(plan_str)
print("Has Cartesian hazard:", report.has_critical)  # True
```

---

### 5. High-Speed Static Code Scanner & CLI

Scan entire repositories for dangerous PySpark anti-patterns in microseconds without booting a JVM:

```bash
# Scan a directory using the sparklineage CLI
sparklineage lint ./pipelines

# Or run via Python module
python -m sparklineage lint ./jobs/etl_job.py
```

Or invoke directly from Python:
```python
import sparklineage as sl

# Scans for .collect() in loops, unbounded .toPandas(), and explicit cross joins
issues = sl.lint_file("my_pipeline.py")
for issue in issues:
    print(f"[{issue['severity']}] Line {issue['line']}: {issue['message']}")
```

---

### 6. Multi-Cloud Security & PII Sanitization

Safely share plans in Slack, Jira, or PR comments without leaking database credentials or cloud keys:

```python
# Automatically sanitizes AWS access keys, JDBC passwords, and PII literals in memory
inspector.sanitize()

# Export clean, redacted markdown report
md_report = inspector.to_markdown()
print(md_report)
```

---

### 7. Full Compatibility with v0.1.0

Existing code using `PlanInspector` continues to work seamlessly:

```python
from sparklineage import PlanInspector

inspector = PlanInspector(my_df)
inspector.check_broadcast_opportunities(threshold_mb=100)
summary = inspector.summarize()
```
