uc-functions 0.1.0

Decorator to compile Python functions to Databricks UDFs sql statements and inline all the dependencies

uc-functions

The purpose of this project is to help you manage unity catalog python functions as traditional python code and be able to easily unit test, integration test and deploy them to Databricks. As part of a compilation step this package converts python AST to unity catalog functions. It also handles things like secrets, etc. by adding a layer of indirection using SQL based UDFs.

Installation

pip install uc-functions

Goals

Convert decorated python functions to sql functions that can be deployed to Databricks. This is useful for managing large number of functions with reusable code. Easy way to test and debug functions.

In this following example code, this project will convert the python function to a SQL function. It also scans for all unidentified names, functions, etc. and tries to inline them as much as possible in the SQL functions.

import json
from pathlib import Path
from utils.keys import MY_SENSITIVE_KEYS

from uc_functions import FunctionDeployment

root_dir = str(Path(__file__).parent)
uc = FunctionDeployment("main",
                        "default",
                        root_dir,
                        globals_dict=globals())


@uc.register
def redact(maybe_json: str) -> str:
    try:
        value = json.loads(maybe_json)
        for key in MY_SENSITIVE_KEYS:
            if key in value:
                value[key] = "REDACTED"
        return json.dumps(value)
    except json.JSONDecodeError:
        return maybe_json

Will get converted to:

DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS main.default.redact;

CREATE
OR
REPLACE
FUNCTION main.default.redact(maybe_json STRING)
RETURNS STRING
LANGUAGE PYTHON
AS $$
import
json

MY_SENSITIVE_KEYS = ["email", "phone"]
try:
    value = json.loads(maybe_json)
    for key in MY_SENSITIVE_KEYS:
        if key in value:
            value[key] = "REDACTED"
    return json.dumps(value)
except json.JSONDecodeError:
    return maybe_json

$$;

Features

• Convert python functions to SQL functions
• Handle secrets
• Inline function references
• Handle imports
• Debug unidentified names
• Easy unit testing and integration testing
• Dynamic sys.path using python files in volumes (soon TBD)

Unit testing

@uc.register is a decorator that only modifies attributes of the function. It does not modify the function inputs and outputs themselves. This makes it easy to unit test the functions.

Example function

@uc.register
def redact(maybe_json: str) -> str:
    try:
        value = json.loads(maybe_json)
        for key in MY_SENSITIVE_KEYS:
            if key in value:
                value[key] = "REDACTED"
        return json.dumps(value)
    except json.JSONDecodeError:
        return maybe_json

Example unit test

def test_redact():
    assert redact('{"email": "foo", "phone": "bar"}') == '{"email": "REDACTED", "phone": "REDACTED"}'

Integration testing

Integration testing is done by deploying the functions and it will test using the remote attribute added to the function.

Register Function:

@uc.register
def redact(maybe_json: str) -> str:
    try:
        value = json.loads(maybe_json)
        for key in MY_SENSITIVE_KEYS:
            if key in value:
                value[key] = "REDACTED"
        return json.dumps(value)
    except json.JSONDecodeError:
        return maybe_json

Once deployed run this:

# executes the code on a remote databricks warehouse
redact.remote(
    '{"email": "foo", "phone": "bar"}',
    # workspace_client=workspace_client, # make sure you pass the workspace client or provide environment variables
    # warehouse_id=warehouse_id # optional otherwise it will pick first serverless warehouse
)
