sdf_with_unique_id
Add a Unique ID Column to a Spark DataFrame
Description
Add a unique ID column to a Spark DataFrame. The Spark monotonicallyIncreasingId
function is used to produce these and is guaranteed to produce unique, monotonically increasing ids; however, there is no guarantee that these IDs will be sequential. The table is persisted immediately after the column is generated, to ensure that the column is stable – otherwise, it can differ across new computations.
Usage
sdf_with_unique_id(x, id = "id")
Arguments
