10.5.4 pyqRowEval Function (On-Premises Database)
This topic describes the pyqRowEval function when used in
    an on-premises Oracle Database. The pyqRowEval function chunks data into sets
    of rows and then runs a user-defined Python function on each chunk.
               
The pyqRowEval function passes the data specified by the
            INP_NAM parameter to the Python
        function specified by the EXP_NAM
        parameter. You can pass arguments to the Python function with the PAR_QRY parameter.
                  
The ROW_NUM parameter
        specifies the maximum number of rows to pass to each invocation of the Python function. The
        last set of rows may have fewer rows than the number specified.
                  
The Python function can return a boolean, a
          dict, a float, an int, a
          list, a str, a tuple or a
          pandas.DataFrame object. You may define the form of the returned value
        with the OUT_QRY parameter.

| Parameter | Description | 
|---|---|
| 
 | The name of a table or view that specifies the data
                                    to pass to the Python function specified by the
                                             |

 | A JSON string that contains additional parameters to
                                    pass to the user-defined Python function specified by the
                                             For example, to specify the input data type as
                                         
 | 
| 
 | The format of the output returned by the function. It can be one of the following: 
 | 
| ROW_NUM | The number of rows to include in each invocation of the Python function. | 
| 
 | The name of a user-defined Python function in the OML4Py script repository. | 
Returns
Function pyqRowEval returns a table that has the structure
        specified by the OUT_QRY parameter value.
                  
Example 10-17 Using the pyqRowEval Function
This example loads the Python model linregr to predict row chunks of sample iris data. The model is created and saved in the datastore pymodel in Example 10-16.
The example defines a Python function and stores it in the OML4Py script repository. It uses the user-defined Python function to create a
        database table as the result of the pyqEval function. It defines a Python
        function that runs a prediction function on a model loaded from the OML4Py datastore. It then invokes the pyqTableEval function to
        invoke the function on chunks of rows from the database table.
                  
In a PL/SQL block, define the function sample_iris_table and
        store it in the script repository. The function loads the iris data set, creates two
          pandas.DataFrame objects, and then returns a sample of the concatenation
        of those objects.
                  
BEGIN
  sys.pyqScriptCreate('sample_iris_table',
    'def sample_iris_table(size):
       from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
       import pandas as pd
       iris = load_iris()
       x = pd.DataFrame(iris.data, columns = ["Sepal_Length",\
                        "Sepal_Width","Petal_Length","Petal_Width"])
       y = pd.DataFrame(list(map(lambda x: {0:"setosa", 1: "versicolor",\
                                 2: "virginica"}[x], iris.target)),\
                        columns = ["Species"])
       return pd.concat([y, x], axis=1).sample(int(size))',
     FALSE, TRUE);  -- V_GLOBAL, V_OVERWRITE
END;
/
Create the SAMPLE_IRIS table in the database as the result of a
          SELECT statement, which invokes the pyqEval function on
        the sample_iris_table user-defined Python function saved in the script
        repository with the same name. The sample_iris_table function returns an
        iris data sample of size size.
                  
CREATE TABLE sample_iris AS
SELECT *
  FROM TABLE(pyqEval(
               '{"size":20}',
               '{"Species":"varchar2(10)","Sepal_Length":"number",
                "Sepal_Width":"number","Petal_Length":"number",
                "Petal_Width":"number"}',
                'sample_iris_table'));Define the Python function predict_model and store it with the
        name linregrPredict in the script repository. The function predicts the
        data in dat with the Python model specified by the
          modelName argument, which is loaded from the datastore specified by the
          datastoreName argument. The predictions are finally concatenated and
        returned with dat as the object that the function returns.
                  
BEGIN
  sys.pyqScriptCreate('linregrPredict',
    'def predict_model(dat, modelName, datastoreName):
       import oml
       import pandas as pd
       objs = oml.ds.load(name=datastoreName, to_globals=False)
       pred = objs[modelName].predict(dat[["Sepal_Length","Sepal_Width",\

/Run a SELECT statement that invokes the
          pyqRowEval function, which runs the specified Python function on each
        chunk of rows in the specified data set. 
                  
The INP_NAM argument specifies the data in the
          SAMPLE_IRIS table to pass to the Python function. 
                  
The PAR_QRY argument specifies connecting to
        the OML4Py server with the special control argument
          oml_connect, passing the input data as a
          pandas.DataFrame with the special control argument
          oml_input_type, along with values for the function arguments
          modelName and datastoreName.
                  
In the OUT_QRY argument, the JSON string
        specifies the column names and data types of the table returned by
          pyqRowEval. 
                  
The ROW_NUM argument specifies that five rows are included in each invocation of the function specified by EXP_NAM.
The EXP_NAM parameter specifies
          linregrPredict, which is the name in the script repository of the
        user-defined Python function to invoke.
