[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-23836) Support returning StructType to the level support in GroupedMap Arrow's "scalar" UDFS (or similar)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-23836?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16592751#comment-16592751 ] 

Andrew Malone Melo commented on SPARK-23836:
--------------------------------------------

[~bryanc] - I think it could be either that or a (possibly nested) dict of pandas.Series

 

For my use case (which is how I stumbled onto this ticket), with non-vectorized UDFs, I use structs to pack multiple return values into a single column. It would be nice to do something similar with the vectorized UDFs as well.

> Currently not all of the supported types can be returned from the scalar pandas UDF type. This means if someone wants to return a struct type doing a map operation right now they either have to do a "junk" groupBy or use the non-vectorized results.
