LogicalRelation Leaf Logical Operator — Representing BaseRelations in Logical Plan

LogicalRelation is a leaf logical operator that represents a BaseRelation in a logical query plan.

val q1 = spark.read.option("header", true).csv("../datasets/people.csv")
scala> println(q1.queryExecution.logical.numberedTreeString)
00 Relation[id#72,name#73,age#74] csv

val q2 = sql("select * from `csv`.`../datasets/people.csv`")
scala> println(q2.queryExecution.optimizedPlan.numberedTreeString)
00 Relation[_c0#175,_c1#176,_c2#177] csv

LogicalRelation is created when:

The simple text representation of a LogicalRelation (aka simpleString) is Relation[output] [relation] (that uses the output and BaseRelation).

val q = spark.read.text("README.md")
val logicalPlan = q.queryExecution.logical
scala> println(logicalPlan.simpleString)
Relation[value#2] text

Creating LogicalRelation Instance

LogicalRelation takes the following when created:

apply Factory Utility

apply(
  relation: BaseRelation,
  isStreaming: Boolean = false): LogicalRelation
apply(
  relation: BaseRelation,
  table: CatalogTable): LogicalRelation

apply creates a LogicalRelation for the input BaseRelation (and CatalogTable or optional isStreaming flag).

Note

apply is used when:

refresh Method

refresh(): Unit
Note
refresh is part of LogicalPlan Contract to refresh itself.

refresh requests the FileIndex of a HadoopFsRelation relation to refresh.

Note
refresh does the work for HadoopFsRelation relations only.
