[SPARK-23380][PYTHON] Adds a conf for Arrow fallback in toPandas/createDataFrame with Pandas DataFrame ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? This PR adds a configuration to control the fallback of Arrow optimization for `toPandas` and `createDataFrame` with Pandas DataFrame. ## How was this patch tested? Manually tested and unit tests added. You can test this by: **`createDataFrame`** ```python spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.enabled", False) pdf = spark.createDataFrame([[{'a': 1}]]).toPandas() spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.enabled", True) spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.fallback.enabled", True) spark.createDataFrame(pdf, "a: map<string, int>") ``` ```python spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.enabled", False) pdf = spark.createDataFrame([[{'a': 1}]]).toPandas() spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.enabled", True) spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.fallback.enabled", False) spark.createDataFrame(pdf, "a: map<string, int>") ``` **`toPandas`** ```python spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.enabled", True) spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.fallback.enabled", True) spark.createDataFrame([[{'a': 1}]]).toPandas() ``` ```python spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.enabled", True) spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.fallback.enabled", False) spark.createDataFrame([[{'a': 1}]]).toPandas() ``` You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/HyukjinKwon/spark SPARK-23380-conf Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/20678.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #20678 ---- commit ff9d38b691bd54c073db3b55983564cfbb0d903e Author: hyukjinkwon <gurwls223@...> Date: 2018-02-26T15:02:55Z Adds a conf for Arrow fallback in toPandas/createDataFrame with Pandas DataFrame ---- --- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: reviews-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: reviews-h...@spark.apache.org
