Closes #800

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Compatibility
    • Builds now support Scala 2.12 with Spark 3.5 and Scala 2.13 with Spark 4.1.
    • Scala 2.11 support has been removed.
    • Column and expression conversions work across Spark 3 and Spark 4.
  • Documentation
    • Updated build instructions and example scripts to use current Scala and Spark versions.
  • Release
    • Project version advanced to 1.15.0-SNAPSHOT.

- Remove Scala 2.11 source set, build profiles and version-specific dependencies
- Add `SparkCompatUtils` for reflection-based `Column` <-> `Expression` conversions across Spark 3 and 4
- Update Scala 2.13 to 2.13.18 with Spark 4.1.2, add Delta/Iceberg/Abris versions for Spark 4
- Add JVM options required by Spark 4 tests
- Bump version to 1.15.0-SNAPSHOT
- Switch default Maven profile to Scala 2.13 + Spark 4.1.2 and parameterize the Iceberg version
- Bump Scala 2.12 to 2.12.21 in build, docs, CI and examples
- Run CI on Java 17 with Spark 3.5.5 / 4.1.2 matrix
- Make bookkeeper filter, offset and metastore config assertions Spark-version agnostic
- Skip Avro schema conversion tests on Spark 4

Walkthrough

The project removes Scala 2.11 support, updates its Scala and Spark version configuration, and adds Spark-compatible column and expression conversions. CI workflows, tests, examples, and build documentation are updated to reflect the version changes.

Changes

Scala and Spark Compatibility

Layer / File(s) Summary
Supported versions and build configuration
pramen/project/Versions.scala, pramen/build.sbt, pramen/pom.xml, pramen/api/pom.xml, pramen/core/pom.xml, pramen/extras/pom.xml, pramen/core/src/main/scala_2.11/...
The build selects Scala 2.12 and 2.13, adds dependency mappings for Spark 4, and removes Scala 2.11 support and its Scala-specific implementations. Java compilation adds --release 8 while retaining JVM 8 settings.
Spark column and expression conversions
pramen/core/src/main/scala/za/co/absa/pramen/core/utils/SparkCompatUtils.scala, pramen/extras/src/main/scala/za/co/absa/pramen/extras/writer/TableWriterKafka.scala, pramen/core/src/test/scala/za/co/absa/pramen/core/tests/utils/SparkCompatUtilsSuite.scala, pramen/extras/src/test/scala/za/co/absa/pramen/extras/avro/AvroUtilsSuite.scala
SparkCompatUtils converts columns and expressions through direct APIs or reflective Spark utility fallbacks. Kafka schema registration and tests use the conversion utility.
CI, examples, and version guidance
.github/workflows/*, README.md, pramen/examples/*
The CI matrix uses Scala 2.12.21 and 2.13.18 with Spark 3.5.5 and 4.1.2, and configures Java 17. Documentation and example scripts use updated Scala versions.
Test expectation updates
pramen/core/src/test/scala/za/co/absa/pramen/core/{metastore,pipeline,tests}/*
Tests update assertions for Spark configuration, test data columns, filter strings, timestamp precision, bookkeeping table setup, and stack-trace formatting.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Make the runnable example use the JAR produced by this command.

The instruction tells users to build and then run combined_example.sh. The script still looks under ../runner/target/ for a JAR named with Spark 3.3.2 and 1.5.1-SNAPSHOT; this build assembles the runner in core and uses different version values. Update the script’s JAR paths and version variables with the instruction, or the documented sequence cannot find its runner JAR. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Keep Avro schema assertions enabled on Spark 4.

All three AvroUtilsSuite tests skip on Spark 4. They exercise the same SparkCompatUtils.col2expr(...).dataType conversion that TableWriterKafka.registerSchema uses before schema registration. Spark 4.1.2 is the default Scala 2.13 build, so these supported builds have no assertions for these schemas.

If the Spark 4 output is expected to differ, add Spark 4 expected resources and remove the guards. Otherwise, fix the conversion and keep the assertions enabled.
