Something feels off here. We are requiring that the user specify
sort_function
, but the API makes it seem optional. I worry that we are now silently ignoringacsending
andna_position
(and maybe evenby
?).What if down-stream users are implementing code with
sorting.sort_values
directly? I don't think that is good/recommended practice, but the API we are changing seems "public" to me (making this a breaking change).Perhaps a simpler (non-breaking) solution would be to remove most of the changes from
DataFrame.sort_values
, pass throughsort_function
andsort_function_kwargs
into here, and implement thesort_function
/sort_function_kwargs
default logic here (insorting.sort_values
). Does this seem reasonable?There was a problem hiding this comment.

That makes sense and is a valid concern - my only comment is that we ideally still want to allow for custom sorting functions in the
npartitions == 1
case that is handled directly inDataFrame.sort_values
, so I think it might also make sense to move the following logic:into
sorting.sort_values
as well, unless there's a reason that's not immediately obvious to me why we would want to keep the single partition case separate?Also noting that this is also a concern for the upstream implementation of this, so depending on what we decide on here I will open up a follow up PR to address this in Dask.

Good point! I definitely like the simplification you made here. So it probably makes sense to do something similar upstream.
