joinKeys
fn
DataFrame joinKeys(DataFrame left, DataFrame right, string[] leftOn,
string[] rightOn, JoinKind kind = JoinKind.INNER,
string suffix = "_right")The multi-column join (ADR-2026-10-30-03): a row matches only when every key pair holds under the existing per-kind rules; any null component never matches (LEFT keeps the row null-padded, SEMI drops it, ANTI keeps it - the single-key doctrine componentwise). OUTER coalesces every paired key column. Emission stays left-order with right-row order within a left row and the deterministic unmatched-right tail.
Parameters
left | the left frame |
right | the right frame |
leftOn | the left key column names |
rightOn | the right key column names (same length) |
kind | the join kind |
suffix | the collision suffix for non-key right columns |
Returns
the joined frame.
Throws
DataFrameException on missing columns, length-mismatched
key arrays, empty keys, dtype/kind violations per pair.
