SparkSession (Spark 2.4.4 JavaDoc)

Object
- org.apache.spark.sql.SparkSession

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Closeable, java.io.Serializable, AutoCloseable, Logging
```
public class SparkSession
extends Object
implements scala.Serializable, java.io.Closeable, Logging
```
The entry point to programming Spark with the Dataset and DataFrame API.
In environments that this has been created upfront (e.g. REPL, notebooks), use the builder to get an existing session:
```
   SparkSession.builder().getOrCreate()
 
```
The builder can also be used to create a new session:
```
   SparkSession.builder
     .master("local")
     .appName("Word Count")
     .config("spark.some.config.option", "some-value")
     .getOrCreate()
 
```
param: sparkContext The Spark context associated with this Spark session. param: existingSharedState If supplied, use the existing shared state instead of creating a new one. param: parentSessionState If supplied, inherit all session state (i.e. temporary views, SQL config, UDFs etc) from parent.

    Since:
    
    2.0.0
  - udf
```
public UDFRegistration udf()
```
    A collection of methods for registering user-defined functions (UDF).
    The following example registers a Scala closure as UDF:
```
   sparkSession.udf.register("myUDF", (arg1: Int, arg2: String) => arg2 + arg1)
 
```
    The following example registers a UDF in Java:

       DataTypes.StringType);

    (undocumented)
    
    Since:
    
    2.0.0

    The user-defined functions must be deterministic. Due to optimization, duplicate invocations may be eliminated or the function may even be invoked more times than it is present in the query.
  - streams
```
public StreamingQueryManager streams()
```
    :: Experimental :: Returns a StreamingQueryManager that allows managing all the StreamingQuerys active on this.

    Returns:
    
    (undocumented)
    
    Since:
    
    2.0.0
    
    Note:
    
    Other than the SparkContext, all shared state is initialized lazily. This method will force the initialization of the shared state to ensure that parent and child sessions are set up with the same shared state. If the underlying catalog implementation is Hive, this will initialize the metastore, which may take some time.
  - emptyDataFrame
```
public Dataset<Row> emptyDataFrame()
```
    Returns a DataFrame with no rows or columns.
    
    Returns:
    
    (undocumented)
