This project consists of an example of how to handle JSON and an implementation flow using Databricks as the tool.
The main factors of any project are:
CI/CD - in this case used to update the job on Databricks. Testing - Validating transformation or calculation functions is very important. Environment - what the cloud environment needs to run the project. Documentation - The more comments and information, the better, right?
This section of the main.py
file focuses on merging data into specific tables and executing an autoloader process using Spark Streaming.
The code snippet begins with merging data into tables:
-
account
-
transaction
-
account_status_change
-
Similarly, if
df_account_status_change
is not empty, it merges the data into the "account_status_change" table, also using "id" as the key and "date_time" as the additional column.
The execute_autoloader
function is defined to execute the autoloader process using Spark Streaming. Here's a breakdown of its parameters and functionality:
load_directory
: The directory containing the data files.schema_path
: The path to the schema file.checkpoint_location
: The location to save the checkpoint.
