Wrapper for Great Expectations to fit the requirements of the Gemeente Amsterdam.

Project description

Introduction

This repository contains functions that will ease the use of Great Expectations. Users can input data and data quality rules and get results in return.

DISCLAIMER: The package is in MVP phase

Getting started

Install the dq suite on your compute, for example by running the following code in your workspace:

pip install dq-suite-amsterdam

To validate your first table:

  • define json_path as a path to a JSON file, similar to shown in dq_rules_example.json in this repo
  • load the table requiring a data quality check into a PySpark dataframe df (e.g. via spark.read.csv or spark.read.table)
import dq_suite

validation_settings_obj = dq_suite.ValidationSettings(spark_session=spark, catalog_name="dpxx_dev",
                                                                 table_name="showcase_table",
                                                                 check_name="showcase_check")
dq_suite.run(json_path=json_path, df=df, validation_settings_obj=validation_settings_obj)

Looping over multiple data frames may require a redefinition of the json_path and validation_settings variables.

Create data quality schema and tables (in respective catalog of data team)

for the first time installation create data quality schema and tables from the notebook from repo path scripts/data_quality_tables.sql

  • open the notebook, connect to a cluster
  • select the catalog of the data team and execute the notebook. It will check if schema is available if not it will create schema and same for tables.

Export the schema from Unity Catalog to the Input Form

In order to output the schema from Unity Catalog, use the following commands (using the required schema name):

schema_output = dq_suite.export_schema('schema_name', spark)
print(schema_output)

Copy the string to the Input Form to quickly ingest the schema in Excel.

Validate the schema of a table

It is possible to validate the schema of an entire table to a schema definition from Amsterdam Schema in one go. This is done by adding two fields to the "dq_rules" JSON when describing the table (See: https://github.com/Amsterdam/dq-suite-amsterdam/blob/main/dq_rules_example.json).

You will need:

  • validate_table_schema: the id field of the table from Amsterdam Schema
  • validate_table_schema_url: the url of the table or dataset from Amsterdam Schema

The schema definition is converted into column level expectations (expect_column_values_to_be_of_type) on run time.

Known exceptions

  • The functions can run on Databricks using a Personal Compute Cluster or using a Job Cluster. Using a Shared Compute Cluster will result in an error, as it does not have the permissions that Great Expectations requires.

  • Since this project requires Python >= 3.10, the use of Databricks Runtime (DBR) >= 13.3 is needed (click). Older versions of DBR will result in errors upon install of the dq-suite-amsterdam library.
