Spark SQL and DataFrames support the following data types:
- Numeric types
ByteType
: Represents 1-byte signed integer numbers. The range of numbers is from-128
to127
.ShortType
: Represents 2-byte signed integer numbers. The range of numbers is from-32768
to32767
.IntegerType
: Represents 4-byte signed integer numbers. The range of numbers is from-2147483648
to2147483647
.LongType
: Represents 8-byte signed integer numbers. The range of numbers is from-9223372036854775808
to9223372036854775807
.FloatType
: Represents 4-byte single-precision floating point numbers.DoubleType
: Represents 8-byte double-precision floating point numbers.DecimalType
: Represents arbitrary-precision signed decimal numbers. Backed internally byjava.math.BigDecimal
. ABigDecimal
consists of an arbitrary precision integer unscaled value and a 32-bit integer scale.
- String type
StringType
: Represents character string values.
- Binary type
BinaryType
: Represents byte sequence values.
- Boolean type
BooleanType
: Represents boolean values.
- Datetime type
TimestampType
: Represents values comprising values of fields year, month, day, hour, minute, and second, with the session local time-zone. The timestamp value represents an absolute point in time.DateType
: Represents values comprising values of fields year, month and day, without a time-zone.
- Complex types
ArrayType(elementType, containsNull)
: Represents values comprising a sequence of elements with the type ofelementType
.containsNull
is used to indicate if elements in aArrayType
value can havenull
values.MapType(keyType, valueType, valueContainsNull)
: Represents values comprising a set of key-value pairs. The data type of keys is described bykeyType
and the data type of values is described byvalueType
. For aMapType
value, keys are not allowed to havenull
values.valueContainsNull
is used to indicate if values of aMapType
value can havenull
values.StructType(fields)
: Represents values with the structure described by a sequence ofStructField
s (fields
).StructField(name, dataType, nullable)
: Represents a field in aStructType
. The name of a field is indicated byname
. The data type of a field is indicated bydataType
.nullable
is used to indicate if values of these fields can havenull
values.
