Hyukjin Kwon commented on SPARK-27093: -------------------------------------- Sure, I am. Will make a PR soon. > Honor ParseMode in AvroFileFormat > --------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-27093 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27093 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Input/Output > Affects Versions: 2.4.0 > Reporter: Tim Cerexhe > Priority: Major > > The Avro reader is missing the ability to handle malformed or truncated files > like the JSON reader. Currently it throws exceptions when it encounters any > bad or truncated record in an Avro file, causing the entire Spark job to fail > from a single dodgy file. > Ideally the AvroFileFormat would accept a Permissive or DropMalformed > ParseMode like Spark's JSON format. This would enable the the Avro reader to > drop bad records and continue processing the good records rather than abort > the entire job. > Obviously the default could remain as FailFastMode, which is the current > effective behavior, so this wouldn’t break any existing users. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
