Is this what you look for ?
scala> Seq((2, "a", "test"), (2, "b", "foo")).toDF("id", "a",
"b").registerTempTable("test")
scala> val df = sql("SELECT struct(id, b, a) from test")
df: org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame = [struct(id, b, a): struct<id: int, b:
string ... 1 more field>]
scala> df.show
+----------------+
|struct(id, b, a)|
+----------------+
| [2,test,a]|
| [2,foo,b]|
+----------------+
You can adjust the order of the columns in struct() .
