TableProviderFactory
s can't be serialized
#3906
Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.
We recently add
TableProviderFactory
s to allow registration of tables by users at run time (i.e.CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE dt STORED AS DELTATABLE
). However, the resulting logical plans (select * from dt
) can't be shipped between nodes (i.e. ballista client & scheduler) due to lack of ability to serde them.Describe the solution you'd like
CustomTable
provider that contains the information necessary to reify the table on a different node (as long as it has the sameTableProviderFactory
registered).CustomTable
Describe alternatives you've considered
It's all pretty confusing, but I think this is the way forward for logical plans to be extendable by 3rd parties at runtime. I'm open to other suggestions though.
