Functions¶

Provides utility and SQL functions that generate Column expressions that you can pass to DataFrame transformation methods.

These utility functions generate references to columns, literals, and SQL expressions (e.g. “c + 1”).

Use col() to convert a column name to a Column object. Refer to the API docs of Column to know more ways of referencing a column.

Use lit() to convert a Python value to a Column object that represents a constant value in Snowflake SQL.
Use sql_expr() to convert a Snowflake SQL expression to a Column.
>>> df = session.create_dataframe([[1, 'a', True, '2022-03-16'], [3, 'b', False, '2023-04-17']], schema=["a", "b", "c", "d"])
>>> res1 = df.filter(col("a") == 1).collect()
>>> res2 = df.filter(lit(1) == col("a")).collect()
>>> res3 = df.filter(sql_expr("a = 1")).collect()
>>> assert res1 == res2 == res3
>>> res1
[Row(A=1, B='a', C=True, D='2022-03-16')]
Copy

Some DataFrame methods accept column names or SQL expressions text aside from a Column object for convenience. For instance:

>>> df.filter("a = 1").collect()  # use the SQL expression directly in filter
[Row(A=1, B='a', C=True, D='2022-03-16')]
>>> df.select("a").collect()
[Row(A=1), Row(A=3)]

Copy

whereas Column objects enable you to use chained column operators and transformations with Python code fluently:

>>> # Use columns and literals in expressions.
>>> df.select(((col("a") + 1).cast("string")).alias("add_one")).show()
-------------
|"ADD_ONE"  |
-------------
|2          |
|4          |
-------------

Copy

The Snowflake database has hundreds of SQL functions This module provides Python functions that correspond to the Snowflake SQL functions. They typically accept Column objects or column names as input parameters and return a new Column objects. The following examples demonstrate the use of some of these functions:

>>> # This example calls the function that corresponds to the TO_DATE() SQL function.
>>> df.select(dateadd('day', lit(1), to_date(col("d")))).show()
---------------------------------------
|"DATEADD('DAY', 1, TO_DATE(""D""))"  |
---------------------------------------
|2022-03-17                           |
|2023-04-18                           |
---------------------------------------

Copy

If you want to use a SQL function in Snowflake but can’t find the corresponding Python function here, you can create your own Python function with function():

>>> my_radians = function("radians")  # "radians" is the SQL function name.
>>> df.select(my_radians(col("a")).alias("my_radians")).show()
------------------------
|"MY_RADIANS"          |
------------------------
|0.017453292519943295  |
|0.05235987755982988   |
------------------------

Copy

or call the SQL function directly:

>>> df.select(call_function("radians", col("a")).as_("call_function_radians")).show()
---------------------------
|"CALL_FUNCTION_RADIANS"  |
---------------------------
|0.017453292519943295     |
|0.05235987755982988      |
---------------------------

Copy

Similarly, to call a table function, you can use table_function(), or call_table_function().

How to find help on input parameters of the Python functions for SQL functions The Python functions have the same name as the corresponding SQL functions.

By reading the API docs or the source code of a Python function defined in this module, you’ll see the type hints of the input parameters and return type. The return type is always Column. The input types tell you the acceptable values:

ColumnOrName accepts a Column object, or a column name in str. Most functions accept this type. If you still want to pass a literal to it, use lit(value), which returns a Column object that represents a literal value.
>>> df.select(avg("a")).show()
----------------
|"AVG(""A"")"  |
----------------
|2.000000      |
----------------

>>> df.select(avg(col("a"))).show()
----------------
|"AVG(""A"")"  |
----------------
|2.000000      |
----------------
Copy
LiteralType accepts a value of type bool, int, float, str, bytearray, decimal.Decimal, datetime.date, datetime.datetime, datetime.time, or bytes. An example is the third parameter of lead().
>>> import datetime
>>> from snowflake.snowpark.window import Window
>>> df.select(col("d"), lead("d", 1, datetime.date(2024, 5, 18), False).over(Window.order_by("d")).alias("lead_day")).show()
---------------------------
|"D"         |"LEAD_DAY"  |
---------------------------
|2022-03-16  |2023-04-17  |
|2023-04-17  |2024-05-18  |
---------------------------
Copy
ColumnOrLiteral accepts a Column object, or a value of LiteralType mentioned above. The difference from ColumnOrLiteral is ColumnOrLiteral regards a str value as a SQL string value instead of a column name. When a function is much more likely to accept a SQL constant value than a column expression, ColumnOrLiteral is used. Yet you can still pass in a Column object if you need to. An example is the second parameter of :func:when.
>>> df.select(when(df["a"] > 2, "Greater than 2").else_("Less than 2").alias("compare_with_2")).show()
--------------------
|"COMPARE_WITH_2"  |
--------------------
|Less than 2       |
|Greater than 2    |
--------------------
Copy
int, bool, str, or another specific type accepts a value of that type. An example is to_decimal().
>>> df.with_column("e", lit("1.2")).select(to_decimal("e", 5, 2)).show()
-----------------------------
|"TO_DECIMAL(""E"", 5, 2)"  |
-----------------------------
|1.20                       |
|1.20                       |
-----------------------------
Copy
ColumnOrSqlExpr accepts a Column object, or a SQL expression. For instance, the first parameter in :func:when.
>>> df.select(when("a > 2", "Greater than 2").else_("Less than 2").alias("compare_with_2")).show()
--------------------
|"COMPARE_WITH_2"  |
--------------------
|Less than 2       |
|Greater than 2    |
