<h1 class="title">CREATE FUNCTION</h1>
<h3 id="description">Description</h3>
<p>The <code>CREATE FUNCTION</code> statement is used to create a temporary or permanent function
in Spark. Temporary functions are scoped at a session level where as permanent
functions are created in the persistent catalog and are made available to
all sessions. The resources specified in the <code>USING</code> clause are made available
to all executors when they are executed for the first time. In addition to the
SQL interface, spark allows users to create custom user defined scalar and
aggregate functions using Scala, Python and Java APIs. Please refer to
<a href="sql-getting-started.html#scalar-functions">scalar_functions</a> and
<a href="sql-getting-started#aggregations">aggregate functions</a> for more information.</p>
<h3 id="syntax">Syntax</h3>
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-sql" data-lang="sql"><span></span><span class="k">CREATE</span> <span class="p">[</span> <span class="k">OR</span> <span class="k">REPLACE</span> <span class="p">]</span> <span class="p">[</span> <span class="k">TEMPORARY</span> <span class="p">]</span> <span class="k">FUNCTION</span> <span class="p">[</span> <span class="k">IF</span> <span class="k">NOT</span> <span class="k">EXISTS</span> <span class="p">]</span>

<h3 id="parameters">Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><code><em>OR REPLACE</em></code></dt>
<dd>
If specified, the resources for the function are reloaded. This is mainly useful
to pick up any changes made to the implementation of the function. This
parameter is mutually exclusive to <code>IF NOT EXISTS</code> and can not
be specified together.
</dd>
<dt><code><em>TEMPORARY</em></code></dt>
<dd>
Indicates the scope of function being created. When <code>TEMPORARY</code> is specified, the
created function is valid and visible in the current session. No persistent
entry is made in the catalog for these kind of functions.
</dd>
<dt><code><em>IF NOT EXISTS</em></code></dt>
<dd>
If specified, creates the function only when it does not exist. The creation
of function succeeds (no error is thrown) if the specified function already
exists in the system. This parameter is mutually exclusive to <code> OR REPLACE</code>
and can not be specified together.
</dd>
<dt><code><em>function_name</em></code></dt>
<dd>
Specifies a name of funnction to be created. The function name may be
optionally qualified with a database name. <br /><br />
<b>Syntax:</b>
<code>
[database_name.]function_name
</code>
</dd>
<dt><code><em>class_name</em></code></dt>
<dd>
Specifies the name of the class that provides the implementation for function to be created.
The implementing class should extend one of the base classes as follows:
<ul>
<li>Should extend <code>UDF</code> or <code>UDAF</code> in <code>org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec</code> package.</li>
<li>Should extend <code>AbstractGenericUDAFResolver</code>, <code>GenericUDF</code>, or
<code>GenericUDTF</code> in <code>org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.udf.generic</code> package.</li>
<li>Should extend <code>UserDefinedAggregateFunction</code> in <code>org.apache.spark.sql.expressions</code> package.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<dt><code><em>resource_locations</em></code></dt>
<dd>
Specifies the list of resources that contain the implementation of the function
along with its dependencies. <br /><br />
<b>Syntax:</b>
<code>
USING { { (JAR | FILE ) resource_uri} , ...}
</code>
</dd>
</dl>
