###

#### object tableFunctions

Provides utility functions that generate table function expressions that can be passed to DataFrame join method and Session tableFunction method.

This object also provides functions that correspond to Snowflake system-defined table functions.

The following examples demonstrate the use of some of these functions:

    import com.snowflake.snowpark.functions.parse_json

    // Creates DataFrame from Session.tableFunction
    session.tableFunction(tableFunctions.flatten, Map("input" -> parse_json(lit("[1,2]"))))
    session.tableFunction(tableFunctions.split_to_table, "split by space", " ")

    // DataFrame joins table function
    df.join(tableFunctions.flatten, Map("input" -> parse_json(df("a"))))
    df.join(tableFunctions.split_to_table, df("a"), ",")

    // Invokes any table function including user-defined table function
     df.join(tableFunctions.tableFunction("flatten"), Map("input" -> parse_json(df("a"))))
     session.tableFunction(tableFunctions.tableFunction("split_to_table"), "split by space", " ")

8.  def explode(input: Column): Column

   Flattens a given array or map type column into individual rows.

   Flattens a given array or map type column into individual rows. The output column(s) in case of array input column is `VALUE`, and are `KEY` and `VALUE` in case of amp input column.

   Example

       import com.snowflake.snowpark.functions._

       val df = Seq("""{"a":1, "b": 2}""").toDF("a")
       val df1 = df.select(
         parse_json(df("a"))
         .cast(types.MapType(types.StringType, types.IntegerType))
         .as("a"))
       df1.select(lit(1), tableFunctions.explode(df1("a")), df1("a")("a")).show()

   input

     The expression that will be unseated into rows. The expression must be either MapType or ArrayType data.

   returns

     The result Column reference

   Since

     1.10.0

9.  def flatten(input: Column, path: String, outer: Boolean, recursive: Boolean, mode: String): Column

   Flattens (explodes) compound values into multiple rows.

   Flattens (explodes) compound values into multiple rows.

   Example

       import com.snowflake.snowpark.functions._
       import com.snowflake.snowpark.tableFunctions._

       df.join(
         tableFunctions.flatten(parse_json(df("a")), "path", true, true, "both")
       )

   input

     The expression that will be unseated into rows. The expression must be of data type VariantType, MapType or ArrayType.

   path

     The path to the element within a VariantType data structure which needs to be flattened. Can be a zero-length string (i.e. empty path) if the outermost element is to be flattened.

   outer

     Optional boolean value. If FALSE, any input rows that cannot be expanded, either because they cannot be accessed in the path or because they have zero fields or entries, are completely omitted from the output. If TRUE, exactly one row is generated for zero-row expansions (with NULL in the KEY, INDEX, and VALUE columns).

   recursive

     If FALSE, only the element referenced by PATH is expanded. If TRUE, the expansion is performed for all sub-elements recursively.

   mode

     ("object", "array", or "both") Specifies whether only objects, arrays, or both should be flattened.

   returns

     The result Column reference

     1.10.0
