Here you go.

Avro schema:

 
{code:java}
{
  "type": "record",
  "namespace": "com.domain.em",
  "name": "PracticeDiff",
  "fields": [
    {
      "name": "practiceId",
      "type": "string"
    },
    {
      "name": "value",
      "type": "string"
    },
    {
      "name": "checkedValue",
      "type": "string"
    }
  ]
} {code}
 

 

Java code:
{code:java}
package com.domain.em;


public final class PracticeDiff {

    private String practiceId;
    private String value;
    private String checkedValue;
       
   
    public String getPracticeId() {
        return practiceId;
    }

    public String getValue() {
        return value;
    }
    
    public String getCheckedValue() {
        return checkedValue;
    }
   
} {code}
Thank you!

> Avro serializer should not fail when a nullable Spark field is written to a

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-31074
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Spark Core
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.4
>            Reporter: Kyrill Alyoshin
>            Priority: Major
>
> Spark StructType schema are strongly biased towards having _nullable_ fields. 
> In fact, this is what _Encoders.bean()_ does - any non-primitive field is 
> automatically _nullable_. When we attempt to serialize dataframes into 
> *user-supplied* Avro schemas where such corresponding fields are marked as 
> _non-null_ (i.e., they are not of _union_ type) any such attempt will fail 
> with the following exception
>  
> {code:java}
> Caused by: org.apache.avro.AvroRuntimeException: Not a union: "string"
>       at org.apache.avro.Schema.getTypes(Schema.java:299)
>       at 
> org.apache.spark.sql.avro.AvroSerializer.org$apache$spark$sql$avro$AvroSerializer$$resolveNullableType(AvroSerializer.scala:229)
>       at 
> org.apache.spark.sql.avro.AvroSerializer$$anonfun$3.apply(AvroSerializer.scala:209)
>  {code}
> This seems as rather draconian. We certainly should be able to write a field 
> of the same type and with the same name if it is not a null into a 
> non-nullable Avro column. In fact, the problem is so *severe* that it is not 
> clear what should be done in such situations when Avro schema is given to you 
> as part of API communication contract (i.e., it is non-changeable).
> This is an important issue.
