How to pick latest record in spark structured stre

问题:

I am using spark-sql 2.4.x version , datastax-spark-cassandra-connector for Cassandra-3.x version. Along with kafka.

I have rates meta data of currency sample as below :

val ratesMetaDataDf = Seq(
     ("EUR","5/10/2019","1.130657","USD"),
     ("EUR","5/9/2019","1.13088","USD")
     ).toDF("base_code", "rate_date","rate_value","target_code")
.withColumn("rate_date", to_date($"rate_date" ,"MM/dd/yyyy").cast(DateType))
.withColumn("rate_value", $"rate_value".cast(DoubleType))

Sales records which i received from kafka topic is , as (sample) below :

val kafkaDf = Seq((15,2016, 4, 100.5,"USD","2021-01-20","EUR",221.4)
                                ).toDF("companyId", "year","quarter","sales","code","calc_date","c_code","prev_sales")

To calculate "prev_sales" , I need get its "c_code" 's respective "rate_value" which is nearest to the "calc_date" i.e. rate_date"

Which i am doing as following

val w2 = Window.orderBy(col("rate_date") desc)
val rateJoinResultDf = kafkaDf.as("k").join(ratesMetaDataDf.as("e"))
                                   .where( ($"k.c_code" === $"e.base_code") &&
                                           ($"rate_date" < $"calc_date")
                                         ).orderBy($"rate_date" desc)
                                  .withColumn("row",row_number.over(w2))
                                  .where($"row" === 1).drop("row")
                                  .withColumn("prev_sales", (col("prev_sales") * col("rate_value")).cast(DoubleType))
                                  .select("companyId", "year","quarter","sales","code","calc_date","prev_sales")

In the above to get nearest record (i.e. "5/10/2019" from ratesMetaDataDf ) for given "rate_date" I am using window and row_number function and sorting the records by "desc".

But in the spark-sql streaming it is causing the error as below

"
Sorting is not supported on streaming DataFrames/Datasets, unless it is on aggregated DataFrame/Dataset in Complete output mode;;"

So how to fetch first record to join in the above.

回答1:

Replace your last code part with below code. This code will do left join and calculate date difference calc_date & rate_date. Next Window function we will pick nearest date and calculate prev_sales by using same your calculation.

Please note I have added one filter condition filter(col("diff") >=0), which will handle a case of calc_date < rate_date. I have added few more records for better understanding of this case.

scala>  val W = Window.partitionBy("companyId","year","quarter","sales","code","calc_date","c_code","prev_sales").orderBy(col("diff"))

scala>   val rateJoinResultDf= kafkaDf.alias("k").join(ratesMetaDataDf.alias("r"), col("k.c_code") === col("r.base_code"), "left")
                                         .withColumn("diff",datediff(col("calc_date"), col("rate_date")))
                                         .filter(col("diff") >= 0)
                                         .withColumn("closedate", row_number.over(W))
                                         .filter(col("closedate") === 1)
                                         .drop("diff", "closedate")
                                         .withColumn("prev_sales", (col("prev_sales") * col("rate_value")).cast("Decimal(14,5)"))
                                         .select("companyId", "year","quarter","sales","code","calc_date","prev_sales")
