In PySpark, a StructType can be dynamically created using the StructType()
constructor and adding StructField()
to it.
Here's an example:
from pyspark.sql.types import *
# Define the schema dynamically
schema = StructType([
StructField("id", IntegerType()),
StructField("name", StringType()),
StructField("age", IntegerType())
])
# Create the DataFrame with the dynamic schema
df = spark.createDataFrame(data, schema)
In this example, we define the schema dynamically by creating a new StructType
object and adding StructField
objects to it. We can specify the field name and data type for each field. Finally, we create a DataFrame using the dynamic schema by calling spark.createDataFrame()
with the schema as an argument.
Note: data
should be a list of tuples, where each tuple contains the data for each row in the DataFrame.
