> Create easy API in Python to construct Variants
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-50284
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-50284
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: PySpark
> Affects Versions: 4.0.0
> Reporter: Harsh Motwani
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> Currently, `VariantVal`'s cannot be created in Python. The `VariantVal` type
> can only be used to read Variants from existing DataFrames. In order to
> create Variants, one can only hard-code byte values of Variants (like
> `VariantVal(bytes([12, i]), bytes([1, 0, 0]))`) which is not useful at all.
> There should be some easy way for Python developers to create variants from
> JSON strings/potentially other ways, for example a `parse_json` API
> implementation in Python.
