Davies Liu updated SPARK-11437:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.6.1)
1.6.0
> createDataFrame shouldn't .take() when provided schema
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-11437
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11437
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: PySpark
> Reporter: Jason White
> Fix For: 1.6.0
>
>
> When creating a DataFrame from an RDD in PySpark, `createDataFrame` calls
> `.take(10)` to verify the first 10 rows of the RDD match the provided schema.
> Similar to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8070, but that issue
> affected cases where a schema was not provided.
> Verifying the first 10 rows is of limited utility and causes the DAG to be
> executed non-lazily. If necessary, I believe this verification should be done
> lazily on all rows. However, since the caller is providing a schema to
> follow, I think it's acceptable to simply fail if the schema is incorrect.
