| 1 | +# Static Query Execution Parser for OpenLineage |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## Overview |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +The **StaticQueryExecutionParser** is a comprehensive solution for processing Apache Spark query execution plans provided as JSON files and generating valid OpenLineage events with COMPLETE status. This parser is specifically designed for in-memory DataFrame operations in dry-run ETL processes. |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +## Architecture |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +### Core Components |
| 10 | + |

| 12 | + - Main parser class that processes JSON execution plans |
| 13 | + - Generates OpenLineage events using existing OpenLineage client classes |
| 14 | + - Handles schema extraction and column lineage mapping |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +2. **StaticQueryExecutionParserMain** (`integration/spark/shared/src/main/java/io/openlineage/spark/agent/lifecycle/StaticQueryExecutionParserMain.java`) |
| 17 | + - Demo runner class with main method |
| 18 | + - Processes individual files or batch processes all example files |
| 19 | + - Includes validation and detailed logging |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +3. **Test Suite** (`integration/spark/shared/src/test/java/io/openlineage/spark/agent/lifecycle/StaticQueryExecutionParserTest.java`) |
| 22 | + - Comprehensive test coverage for all parser functionality |

| 24 | + |
| 25 | +## Key Features |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +### 1. JSON Structure Handling |
| 28 | +- Processes flat arrays of Spark plan nodes with index-based references |
| 29 | +- Handles various Spark operation types (Project, Filter, Join, Aggregate, etc.) |
| 30 | +- Correctly identifies `LogicalRDD` nodes as input sources |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +### 2. Dataset Identification |
| 33 | +- Generates unique, deterministic identifiers for in-memory DataFrames |
| 34 | +- Uses schema-based hashing for consistent dataset naming |
| 35 | +- Assigns `memory://dataframes` namespace for all datasets |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +### 3. Schema Extraction |
| 38 | +- Extracts complete schema information from execution plan nodes |
| 39 | +- Handles nested attribute structures and complex data types |
| 40 | +- Supports both `output` and `attributes` field patterns |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +### 4. Column Lineage Mapping |
| 43 | +- Traces column relationships from input to output datasets |
| 44 | +- Handles direct column mappings and transformations |
| 45 | +- Generates OpenLineage-compliant column lineage facets |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +### 5. Event Generation |
| 48 | +- Creates complete OpenLineage events with COMPLETE status |
| 49 | +- Includes all required metadata (runId, eventTime, job information) |
| 50 | +- Supports event emission through existing OpenLineage client |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +## Usage |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +### Basic Usage |
| 55 | +```java |
| 56 | +StaticQueryExecutionParser parser = new StaticQueryExecutionParser(); |
| 57 | +OpenLineage.RunEvent event = parser.parseExecutionPlanFile("path/to/query_plan.json"); |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +// Emit the event |
| 60 | +OpenLineageClient client = OpenLineageClient.builder() |
| 61 | + .transport(new ConsoleTransport()) |
| 62 | + .build(); |
| 63 | +parser.emitEvent(event, client); |
| 64 | +``` |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +### Command Line Usage |
| 67 | +```bash |
| 68 | +# Process a specific file |
| 69 | +java StaticQueryExecutionParserMain path/to/query_plan.json |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +# Process all files in query_execution_examples directory |
| 72 | +java StaticQueryExecutionParserMain |
| 73 | +``` |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +## Implementation Details |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +### JSON Structure Processing |
| 78 | +The parser handles the specific structure found in the provided examples: |
| 79 | +- Root level: Array of plan nodes |
| 80 | +- Each node: Contains `class`, operation-specific fields, and child references |
| 81 | +- LogicalRDD nodes: Contain `output` arrays with schema information |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +### Dataset ID Generation |
| 84 | +```java |
| 85 | +// Generates deterministic IDs based on schema signature |
| 86 | +String schemaSignature = String.join(",", columns.stream().sorted().collect(Collectors.toList())); |
| 87 | +int hash = (nodeClass + schemaSignature + depth).hashCode(); |
| 88 | +String datasetId = "input_dataset_" + Math.abs(hash); |
| 89 | +``` |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +### Schema Extraction Algorithm |
| 92 | +1. Try extracting from `output` field first |
| 93 | +2. Fallback to `attributes` field if no output found |
| 94 | +3. Handle nested array structures for field definitions |
| 95 | +4. Extract field names, data types, and nullability |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +### Column Lineage Tracing |
| 98 | +1. Extract output column names from root node |
| 99 | +2. For each output column, search input sources for matching columns |
| 100 | +3. Generate lineage relationships with transformation descriptions |
| 101 | +4. Create OpenLineage column lineage facets |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +## Handling Edge Cases |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +### 1. Missing Input Sources |
| 106 | +- Creates mock input datasets when no LogicalRDD nodes found |
| 107 | +- Ensures events always have at least one input for compliance |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +### 2. Complex Data Types |
| 110 | +- Handles nested data type structures |
| 111 | +- Supports decimal precision specifications |
| 112 | +- Gracefully handles unknown types with fallback |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +### 3. Missing Schema Information |
| 115 | +- Provides default empty schemas when extraction fails |
| 116 | +- Logs warnings for debugging purposes |
| 117 | + |
| 118 | +## Output Format |
| 119 | + |
| 120 | +The parser generates OpenLineage events with the following structure: |
| 121 | + |
| 122 | +```json |
| 123 | +{ |
| 124 | + "eventType": "COMPLETE", |
| 125 | + "eventTime": "2024-01-01T12:00:00Z", |
| 126 | + "run": { |
| 127 | + "runId": "uuid-here" |
| 128 | + }, |
| 129 | + "job": { |
| 130 | + "namespace": "static_analysis", |
| 131 | + "name": "extracted-from-filename" |
| 132 | + }, |
| 133 | + "inputs": [ |
| 134 | + { |
| 135 | + "namespace": "memory://dataframes", |

| 138 | + "schema": { |
| 139 | + "fields": [...] |
| 140 | + } |
| 141 | + } |
| 142 | + } |
| 143 | + ], |
| 144 | + "outputs": [ |
| 145 | + { |
| 146 | + "namespace": "memory://dataframes", |
| 147 | + "name": "job-name_output", |
| 148 | + "facets": { |
| 149 | + "schema": { |
| 150 | + "fields": [...] |
| 151 | + }, |
| 152 | + "columnLineage": { |
| 153 | + "fields": { |
| 154 | + "column_name": { |
| 155 | + "inputFields": [...], |
| 156 | + "transformationType": "DIRECT" |
| 157 | + } |
| 158 | + } |
| 159 | + } |
| 160 | + } |
| 161 | + } |
| 162 | + ] |
| 163 | +} |
| 164 | +``` |
