SelectFromCollection class

Selects one DynamicFrame in a DynamicFrameCollection.

Example

This example uses SelectFromCollection to select a DynamicFrame from a DynamicFrameCollection.

Example dataset

The example selects two DynamicFrames from a DynamicFrameCollection called split_rows_collection. The following is the list of keys in split_rows_collection.

dict_keys(['high', 'low'])

Example code

# Example: Use SelectFromCollection to select
# DynamicFrames from a DynamicFrameCollection

from pyspark.context import SparkContext
from awsglue.context import GlueContext
from awsglue.transforms import SelectFromCollection

# Create GlueContext
sc = SparkContext.getOrCreate()
glueContext = GlueContext(sc)

# Select frames and inspect entries
frame_low = SelectFromCollection.apply(dfc=split_rows_collection, key="low")
frame_low.toDF().show()

frame_high = SelectFromCollection.apply(dfc=split_rows_collection, key="high")
frame_high.toDF().show()
