             Summary: Support for datetime comparisions in filter for dataframes in pyspark
                 Key: SPARK-6959
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6959
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: cynepia


Currently, in filter strings can be passed for comparision with a "date" type column. But this does not address the case where dates may be passed in different formats. We should have support for datetime.date or some standard format for comparision with "date" type columns.

Currently,
df.filter(df.Datecol > datetime.date(2015,1,1)).show()
is not supported.
