[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-4689) Unioning 2 SchemaRDDs should return a SchemaRDD in Python, Scala, and Java

["Bibudh Lahiri (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4689?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14268720#comment-14268720 ] 

Bibudh Lahiri commented on SPARK-4689:
--------------------------------------

I'd like to work on this issue, but would need some details. I looked into ./sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/SchemaRDD.scala where the unionAll method is defined as 

def unionAll(otherPlan: SchemaRDD) =
    new SchemaRDD(sqlContext, Union(logicalPlan, otherPlan.logicalPlan))

Are we looking for an implementation of union here (keeping duplicates only once), in addition to unionAll (keeping duplicates both the times)?

> Currently, you need to use unionAll() in Scala.  
> Python does not expose this functionality at the moment.
> The current work around is to use the UNION ALL HiveQL functionality detailed here:  https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Union
