Dummy

Module for the DummyWriter class.

koheesio.spark.writers.dummy.DummyWriter #

A simple DummyWriter that performs the equivalent of a df.show() on the given DataFrame and returns the first row of data as a dict.

This Writer does not actually write anything to a source/destination, but is useful for debugging or testing purposes.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
n PositiveInt

Number of rows to show.

20
truncate bool | PositiveInt

If set to True, truncate strings longer than 20 chars by default. If set to a number greater than one, truncates long strings to length truncate and align cells right.

True
vertical bool

If set to True, print output rows vertically (one line per column value).

False

int_truncate #

int_truncate(truncate_value: Union[int, bool]) -> int

Truncate is either a bool or an int.

Parameters:

truncate_value : int | bool, optional, default=True If int, specifies the maximum length of the string. If bool and True, defaults to a maximum length of 20 characters.

Returns:

int The maximum length of the string.
