SparkR (version 2.1.2)

dapply: dapply

Description

Apply a function to each partition of a SparkDataFrame.

Usage

dapply(x, func, schema)
# S4 method for SparkDataFrame,`function`,structType
dapply(x, func, schema)

Arguments

x

A SparkDataFrame

func

A function to be applied to each partition of the SparkDataFrame. func should have only one parameter, to which a R data.frame corresponds to each partition will be passed. The output of func should be a R data.frame.

schema

The schema of the resulting SparkDataFrame after the function is applied. It must match the output of func.
