This release is about three things:

  • adding support for more recent major Spark versions, in particular Spark 2.3 and Spark 2.4; since the latter is the first Spark version available for Scala 2.12, this release of kontextfrei is also the first one cross-compiled against Scala 2.12, at least for that specific Spark version
  • adding a few RDD operators that were still missing: repartitionAndSortWithinPartitions, partitionBy, filterByRange andsortByKey; there is also an empty method now in DistributionOps, which invokes emptyRDD in the RDD implementation
  • finally, and most importantly, improving the developer experience by supporting the setName method and by setting the proper call site; both of these lead to a better experience in the Spark UI when using kontextfrei
