Summary of Changes
Hello @walmaaoui, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
This pull request refactors the SchemaConverters class to enhance its capability in converting Spark MapType keys and values into BigQuery schema fields. The core change involves unifying the field creation logic by utilizing the existing createBigQueryColumn method, which simplifies the codebase and provides more robust support for diverse data types within map structures.
Highlights
- Refactoring MapType Conversion: The specialized
buildMapTypeFieldmethod has been removed, streamlining the process of converting SparkMapTypekeys and values to BigQuery fields. - Unified Column Creation: Map key and value fields are now consistently created using the more general
createBigQueryColumnmethod, improving code reusability and reducing duplication. - Enhanced Type Flexibility: By leveraging
createBigQueryColumn, this change implicitly allowsMapTypekeys and values to support a broader range of Spark data types, aligning with the PR's goal of supporting 'Any Type'.

Code Review
This pull request enhances the Spark-to-BigQuery schema conversion for MapType by enabling support for complex data types in map keys and values through a recursive approach. The changes ensure correct handling of nullability for map values and enforce non-nullable map keys. The review suggests adding comments to clarify the reasoning behind specific choices in the code, improving overall readability.

| new StructField("key", mapType.keyType(), false, Metadata.empty()), depth + 1), |

Creating the StructField for the map key with nullable = false ensures that map keys are never null, which aligns with the semantics of BigQuery. However, it might be beneficial to add a comment explaining why nullable = false is explicitly set here, enhancing code readability.
| new StructField( | ||
| "value", mapType.valueType(), mapType.valueContainsNull(), Metadata.empty()), |

The nullable property of the StructField for the map value is directly derived from mapType.valueContainsNull(). This correctly propagates the nullability of the map value type. Consider adding a comment to explicitly state this propagation for better code understanding.
