    Description

      There are two types or Metadata in Spark

      • Metadata that is constant per file (file_name, file_size, ...)
      • Metadata that is not contant (currently only row_index)

      The two types are generated differently

      • File constant metadata is appended to the output after scan
      • non-constant metadata is generated during the scan

      The proposal here is to create different metadata attributes to distinguish those different types throughout the code
