> Remove GroupArrowUDFSerializer by moving flatten logic to mapper
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-55194
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-55194
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: PySpark
> Affects Versions: 4.2.0
> Reporter: Yicong Huang
> Assignee: Yicong Huang
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> {{GroupArrowUDFSerializer}} exists only to add a {{flatten_struct}} call in {{load_stream}}, inheriting everything else from {{ArrowStreamGroupUDFSerializer}}:
> {code:python}
> class GroupArrowUDFSerializer(ArrowStreamGroupUDFSerializer):
> def load_stream(self, stream):
> for (batches,) in self._load_group_dataframes(stream, num_dfs=1):
> batch_iter = map(ArrowBatchTransformer.flatten_struct, batches)
> yield batch_iter
> {code}
> This creates an unnecessary inheritance layer. The flatten operation is a data transformation that belongs closer to where it's used (the mapper), not in the serializer.
> Proposal: Move {{flatten_struct}} to the mapper and delete {{GroupArrowUDFSerializer}}.
