Hm.. does this work for unicode in Python 2, for example, spark.range(1).select("아")? Up to my knowledge, converting it to ascii directly throws an exception.

>>> str(u"아")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\uc544' in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)

>>> repr(u"아")
"u'\\uc544'"

Maybe, we should check if this is unicode and do .encode.

I just tested with this change as below to help:

  • before
>>> try:
...     spark.range(1).select(u"아")
... except Exception as e:
...     print e
u"cannot resolve '`\uc544`' given input columns: [id];;\n'Project ['\uc544]\n+- Range (0, 1, step=1, splits=Some(8))\n"

>>> spark.range(1).select(u"아")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File ".../spark/python/pyspark/sql/dataframe.py", line 992, in select
    jdf = self._jdf.select(self._jcols(*cols))
  File ".../spark/python/lib/py4j-0.10.4-src.zip/py4j/java_gateway.py", line 1133, in __call__
  File ".../spark/python/pyspark/sql/utils.py", line 69, in deco
    raise AnalysisException(s.split(': ', 1)[1], stackTrace)
pyspark.sql.utils.AnalysisException: u"cannot resolve '`\uc544`' given input columns: [id];;\n'Project ['\uc544]\n+- Range (0, 1, step=1, splits=Some(8))\n"
  • after
>>> try:
...     spark.range(1).select(u"아")
... except Exception as e:
...     print e
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 4, in <module>

@uncleGen, could you double check if I did something wrong maybe?

We can add a check under Python2. If it is unicode, just encode it with utf-8.

Ah, thank you for confirmation. I thought I was mistaken :).

Maybe another benefit for this change is, before it you will see the error log in your example like:

u"cannot resolve '\uc544' given input columns: [id];;\n'Project ['\uc544]

repr will show unicode escape characters \uc544. Even you encode it, you will see binary representation for it. str can show the correct "아" if encoded with utf-8.

If I test it correctly.

Yea, I support this change and tested some more cases with that encode.
