R-like formulas for Spark Dataframes.

• Documentation
• PyPi
• Gitter

Now you have the expressive power of R-like formulas to produce design matrices for your experimental needs. This API is based off of patsy, but for use with Apache Spark dataframes. Given a Spark dataframe, you can express your design matrices with something that resembles the following.

y ~ x1 + x2 + (x3 + a + b)**2

Here's a short and sweet example.

from ydot.spark import smatrices

spark_df = get_a_spark_dataframe()
formula = 'y ~ x1 + x2 + (x3 + a + b)**2'
y, X = smatrices(formula, spark_df)
