[BUG] `PanderaTransformer::to_python_value()` seems to be returning an incorrect type

[danieldanciu]

The return type of the to_python_value of the pandera type transformer seems incorrect. Currently, the returned type is pandas.core.frame.DataFrame, but the declared return type is pandera.typing.DataFrame. I suspect this is because instantiating pandera.DataFrameSchema returns a pandas.core.frame.DataFrame, rather than what one would normally expect, namely a pandera.typing.DataFrame.

I will propose an MR to fix this shortly.

Thank you for opening your first issue here! 🛠

The issue arises because PanderaTransformer::to_python_value() returns a pandas.DataFrame instead of a pandera.typing.DataFrame. This discrepancy is due to the instantiation of pandera.DataFrameSchema, which returns a pandas.DataFrame.

Would you like more detail on how to address this issue?
