Hyukjin Kwon updated SPARK-38245:
---------------------------------
Labels: avro (was: avro newbie)
> Avro Complex Union Type return `member$I`
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-38245
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-38245
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 3.2.1
> Environment: +OS+
> * Debian GNU/Linux 10 (Docker Container)
> +packages & others+
> * spark-avro_2.12-3.2.1
> * python 3.7.3
> * pyspark 3.2.1
> * spark-3.2.1-bin-hadoop3.2
> * Docker version 20.10.12
> Reporter: Teddy Crepineau
> Priority: Major
> Labels: avro
>
> *Short Description*
> When reading complex union types from Avro files, there seems to be some
> information lost as the name of the record is omitted and {{member$i}} is
> instead returned.
> *Long Description*
> +Error+
> Given the Avro schema {{{}schema.avsc{}}}, I would expected the schema when
> reading the avro file using {{read_avro.py}} to be as {{{}expected.txt{}}}.
> Instead, I get the schema output in {{reality.txt}} where {{RecordOne}}
> became {{{}member0{}}}, etc.
> This causes information lost and makes the DataFrame unusable.
> From my understanding this behavior was implemented
> [here.|https://github.com/databricks/spark-avro/pull/117]
