spark-notebook-converter 1.0.0

Transform SQL stored procedures into executable PySpark Jupyter notebooks

🚀 Spark Notebook Converter

Transform SQL stored procedures into executable PySpark Jupyter notebooks in seconds.

from spark_notebook_converter import parse_stored_procedure
from notebook_generator import NotebookGenerator

sql = "SELECT dept, AVG(salary) FROM employees GROUP BY dept ORDER BY dept"
gen = NotebookGenerator(parse_stored_procedure(sql), title="Salary Analysis")
gen.save("salary_analysis.ipynb")

Result: A complete Jupyter notebook with PySpark code, validation, and export cells.

🚀 Quick Start

1. Generate a Jupyter Notebook

from spark_notebook_converter import parse_stored_procedure
from notebook_generator import NotebookGenerator

sql = """
SELECT c.customer_id, c.name, COUNT(o.id) as order_count
FROM customers c
LEFT JOIN orders o ON c.customer_id = o.customer_id
WHERE c.status = 'ACTIVE'
GROUP BY c.customer_id, c.name
ORDER BY order_count DESC
"""

# Parse and generate
proc = parse_stored_procedure(sql)
gen = NotebookGenerator(proc, title="Customer Analysis")

# Save as .ipynb
gen.save("customer_analysis.ipynb")

Then open in Jupyter:

jupyter notebook customer_analysis.ipynb

2. Generate PySpark Code

from pyspark_code_generator import generate_pyspark_from_sql

sql = """
SELECT product_id, SUM(qty) as total_qty, AVG(price) as avg_price
FROM sales
WHERE region = 'North America'
GROUP BY product_id
ORDER BY total_qty DESC
"""

code = generate_pyspark_from_sql(sql)
print(code)

Output:

# Start with base table
result = sales_df  # WHERE

# SQL: WHERE region = 'North America'
result = result.filter("region == 'North America'")

# SQL: GROUP BY product_id
result = result.groupBy("product_id").agg(
    sum("qty").alias("total_qty"),
    avg("price").alias("avg_price")
)

# SQL: ORDER BY total_qty
result = result.orderBy(desc("total_qty"))

3. Inspect Parsed SQL

from spark_notebook_converter import parse_stored_procedure

sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE status='ACTIVE' GROUP BY region"
proc = parse_stored_procedure(sql)

# Access parsed components
print(f"Tables: {[t.name for t in proc.input_tables]}")
print(f"Has WHERE: {proc.where_condition is not None}")
print(f"Grouped by: {proc.group_by.columns if proc.group_by else None}")
print(f"Columns: {[c.name for c in proc.select_columns]}")

📖 Examples

Example 1: Simple SELECT

from spark_notebook_converter import parse_stored_procedure
from pyspark_code_generator import generate_pyspark_from_sql

sql = "SELECT id, name, email FROM users WHERE status = 'ACTIVE'"
code = generate_pyspark_from_sql(sql)
print(code)

Example 2: Complex Query with Multiple Operations

sql = """
SELECT 
    dept_id,
    COUNT(*) as emp_count,
    AVG(salary) as avg_salary,
    MAX(salary) as max_salary
FROM employees e
LEFT JOIN departments d ON e.dept_id = d.id
WHERE e.hire_date >= '2020-01-01'
GROUP BY dept_id
HAVING COUNT(*) > 5
ORDER BY avg_salary DESC
"""

from spark_notebook_converter import parse_stored_procedure
from notebook_generator import NotebookGenerator

proc = parse_stored_procedure(sql)
gen = NotebookGenerator(proc, title="Department Analysis")
gen.save("department_analysis.ipynb")

Example 3: Window Functions

sql = """
SELECT 
    employee_id,
    salary,
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY dept_id ORDER BY salary DESC) as rank
FROM employees
"""

from pyspark_code_generator import generate_pyspark_from_sql
code = generate_pyspark_from_sql(sql)
print(code)

🔌 API Reference

Core Functions

parse_stored_procedure(sql: str) -> StoredProcedure

Parse SQL and extract operations.

proc = parse_stored_procedure("SELECT * FROM users WHERE active=1")
# Returns: StoredProcedure object with all extracted components

NotebookGenerator(procedure: StoredProcedure, title: str)

Create a Jupyter notebook generator.

gen = NotebookGenerator(proc, title="My Analysis")
notebook = gen.generate()  # Get Notebook object
gen.save("output.ipynb")   # Save to file

generate_pyspark_from_sql(sql: str) -> str

Generate PySpark code from SQL.

code = generate_pyspark_from_sql(sql)
print(code)  # Print executable PySpark code

Data Models

• StoredProcedure - Root object with all parsed components
• Column - Represents a column with name, type, aggregations
• Table - Represents a table with name and alias
• JoinCondition - Represents a JOIN operation
• Aggregation - Represents aggregation functions (COUNT, SUM, etc)
• GroupByClause - GROUP BY with aggregations
• OrderByClause - ORDER BY with direction
• WindowFunction - Window functions (ROW_NUMBER, RANK, etc)

🐛 Troubleshooting

Issue: "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'spark_notebook_converter'"

Solution: Make sure you're in the correct directory or install the local package first:

pip install .

Issue: "SyntaxError" when generating code

Solution: The parser might not recognize your SQL syntax. Check:

• SQL is well-formed
• Parentheses are balanced
• Column/table names are valid

Issue: Generated notebook doesn't execute

Solution:

• Make sure your DataFrames match expected names (customers_df, orders_df, etc)
• Update data loading paths in Cell 3
• Install PySpark: pip install pyspark
