# pyspark-connectby
Spark currently does not support hierarchy query `connectBy` as of version 3.5.0. And there is a [PR](https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/40744) opened to support recursive CTE query. But that is still not available yet.  

This is an attempt to add `connectBy` method to [DataFrame](https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/api/python/reference/pyspark.sql/api/pyspark.sql.DataFrame.html)

# Concept 
Hierarchy query is one of the important feature that many relational databases, such as [Oracle](https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/19/sqlrf/Hierarchical-Queries.html#GUID-0118DF1D-B9A9-41EB-8556-C6E7D6A5A84E), DB2, My SQL, 
Snowflake, [Redshift](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/r_CONNECT_BY_clause.html), etc.,
would support directly or alternatively by using recursive CTE. 

Example in Redshift:
```sql
select id, name, manager_id, level
from employee
start with emp_id = 1
connect by prior emp_id = manager_id;
```

With this library, you can use `connectBy()` on `Dateframe`:

```python
from pyspark_connectby import connectBy
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession

schema = 'emp_id string, manager_id string, name string'
data = [[1, None, 'Carlos'],
        [11, 1, 'John'],
        [111, 11, 'Jorge'],
        [112, 11, 'Kwaku'],
        [113, 11, 'Liu'], 
        [2, None, 'Mat']
        ]
spark = SparkSession.builder.getOrCreate()
df = spark.createDataFrame(data, schema)
df2 = df.connectBy(prior='emp_id', to='manager_id', start_with='1')
df2.show()
```
With result:
```
+------+----------+-----+-----------------+----------+------+
|emp_id|START_WITH|LEVEL|CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF|manager_id|  name|
+------+----------+-----+-----------------+----------+------+
|     1|         1|    1|            false|      null|Carlos|
|    11|         1|    2|            false|         1|  John|
|   111|         1|    3|             true|        11| Jorge|
|   112|         1|    3|             true|        11| Kwaku|
|   113|         1|    3|             true|        11|   Liu|
+------+----------+-----+-----------------+----------+------+
```
Note the pseudo columns in the query result:
- START_WITH
- LEVEL
- CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF

# Installation
## Python 
Version >= 3.9, <4.0
```
$ pip install --upgrade pyspark-connectby
```

# Usage

```python
from pyspark_connectby import connectBy

df = ...

df.connectBy(prior='emp_id', to='manager_id', start_with='1')  # start_with `emp_id` as 1

df.transform(connectBy, prior='emp_id', to='manager_id', start_with='1')  # or by using df.transform() method

df.connectBy(prior='emp_id', to='manager_id')  # without start_with, it will go through each node

df.connectBy(prior='emp_id', to='manager_id', start_with=['1', '2'])  # start_with a list of top nodes ids. 

```
