DynamicFrameCollection class

A DynamicFrameCollection is a dictionary of DynamicFrame class objects, in which the keys are the names of the DynamicFrames and the values are the DynamicFrame objects.

__init__

__init__(dynamic_frames, glue_ctx)

• dynamic_frames – A dictionary of DynamicFrame class objects.

• glue_ctx – A GlueContext class object.

Keys

keys( ) – Returns a list of the keys in this collection, which generally consists of the names of the corresponding DynamicFrame values.

Values

values(key) – Returns a list of the DynamicFrame values in this collection.

Select

select(key)

Returns the DynamicFrame that corresponds to the specfied key (which is generally the name of the DynamicFrame).

• key – A key in the DynamicFrameCollection, which usually represents the name of a DynamicFrame.

Map

map(callable, transformation_ctx="")

Uses a passed-in function to create and return a new DynamicFrameCollection based on the DynamicFrames in this collection.

• callable – A function that takes a DynamicFrame and the specified transformation context as parameters and returns a DynamicFrame.

• transformation_ctx – A transformation context to be used by the callable (optional).

Flatmap

flatmap(f, transformation_ctx="")

Uses a passed-in function to create and return a new DynamicFrameCollection based on the DynamicFrames in this collection.

• f – A function that takes a DynamicFrame as a parameter and returns a DynamicFrame or DynamicFrameCollection.

• transformation_ctx – A transformation context to be used by the function (optional).
