Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We would like to be able to support the
concat
operator in Apache Spark sql for arrays.concat
lets you concatenate strings together into a new string. It also lets you concatenate lists of other things together into a new list.This is very similar to what happens with strings, the main difference is that a list can hold nulls and a string cannot, so we need to make sure that the nulls are honored.
Also if one of the input lists is a null the output list should be a null.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like an API like the following that would take multiple lists of Something and concatenate them together.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I think I hack something together myself but it would not be pretty.
