KvSwap (core 2.44.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.PTransform<PCollection<KV<K,V>>,PCollection<KV<V,K>>>
- - org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.KvSwap<K,V>

Type Parameters:

K - the type of the keys in the input PCollection and the values in the output PCollection

V - the type of the values in the input PCollection and the keys in the output PCollection

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, HasDisplayData
```
public class KvSwap<K,V>
extends PTransform<PCollection<KV<K,V>>,PCollection<KV<V,K>>>
```
KvSwap<K, V> takes a PCollection<KV<K, V>> and returns a PCollection<KV<V, K>>, where all the keys and values have been swapped.
Example of use:
```
 PCollection<String, Long> wordsToCounts = ...;
 PCollection<Long, String> countsToWords =
     wordToCounts.apply(KvSwap.<String, Long>create());
 
```
Each output element has the same timestamp and is in the same windows as its corresponding input element, and the output PCollection has the same WindowFn associated with it as the input.

- Method Detail
  - create
```
public static <K,V> KvSwap<K,V> create()
```
    Returns a KvSwap<K, V> PTransform.
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    K - the type of the keys in the input PCollection and the values in the output PCollection
    
    V - the type of the values in the input PCollection and the keys in the output PCollection
  - expand
```
public PCollection<KV<V,K>> expand(PCollection<KV<K,V>> in)
```
    Description copied from class: PTransform
    
    Override this method to specify how this PTransform should be expanded on the given InputT.
    NOTE: This method should not be called directly. Instead apply the PTransform should be applied to the InputT using the apply method.
    Composite transforms, which are defined in terms of other transforms, should return the output of one of the composed transforms. Non-composite transforms, which do not apply any transforms internally, should return a new unbound output and register evaluators (via backend-specific registration methods).
