Struct arrow::array::UnionBuilder

pub struct UnionBuilder { /* fields omitted */ }

Builder type for creating a new UnionArray.

Example: Dense Memory Layout

use arrow::array::UnionBuilder;
use arrow::datatypes::{Float64Type, Int32Type};

let mut builder = UnionBuilder::new_dense(3);
builder.append::<Int32Type>("a", 1).unwrap();
builder.append::<Float64Type>("b", 3.0).unwrap();
builder.append::<Int32Type>("a", 4).unwrap();
let union = builder.build().unwrap();

assert_eq!(union.type_id(0), 0_i8);
assert_eq!(union.type_id(1), 1_i8);
assert_eq!(union.type_id(2), 0_i8);

assert_eq!(union.value_offset(0), 0_i32);
assert_eq!(union.value_offset(1), 0_i32);
assert_eq!(union.value_offset(2), 1_i32);

Example: Sparse Memory Layout

use arrow::array::UnionBuilder;
use arrow::datatypes::{Float64Type, Int32Type};

let mut builder = UnionBuilder::new_sparse(3);
builder.append::<Int32Type>("a", 1).unwrap();
builder.append::<Float64Type>("b", 3.0).unwrap();
builder.append::<Int32Type>("a", 4).unwrap();
let union = builder.build().unwrap();

assert_eq!(union.type_id(0), 0_i8);
assert_eq!(union.type_id(1), 1_i8);
assert_eq!(union.type_id(2), 0_i8);

assert_eq!(union.value_offset(0), 0_i32);
assert_eq!(union.value_offset(1), 1_i32);
assert_eq!(union.value_offset(2), 2_i32);
