Join through expression variable as on condition in databricks using PySpark

 Lets see how to join 2 table with a parameterized on condition in PySpark

Eg: I have 2 dataframes A and B and I want to join them with id,inv_no,item and subitem


onExpr = [(A.id == B.id) &
                    (A.invc_no == B.invc_no) & 
                    (A.item == B.item) & 
                    (A.subItem == B.subItem)] 

 dailySaleDF = A.join(B, onExpr, 'left').select([c for c in df.columns])



Save dataframe to table and ADLS path in one go

 Lets see how to save dataframe into a table and create view on adls.


df.write.format('delta')
            .mode('overwrite')
            .option('overwriteSchema', 'true')
            .saveAsTable('{database_name}.{tbl}'.format(database_name = database,tbl = table_name)
                , path = '{base_dir}/{tbl}/'.format(base_dir  =  location,tbl  =  table_name))
