polars groupby and pivot converting code from pyspark

Currently converting some code from pyspark to polars which i need some help with

In pyspark i am grouping by col1 and col2 then pivoting on column called VariableName using the Value column.how would I do this in polars?

pivotDF = df.groupBy("col1","col2").pivot("VariableName").max("Value")

Let's start with this data:

import polars as pl
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession

df = pl.DataFrame(
    {
        "col1": ["A", "B"] * 12,
        "col2": ["x", "y", "z"] * 8,
        "VariableName": ["one", "two", "three", "four"] * 6,
        "Value": pl.int_range(0, 24, eager=True),
    }
)
df

shape: (24, 4)
┌──────┬──────┬──────────────┬───────┐

│ B    ┆ x    ┆ four         ┆ 3     │
│ A    ┆ y    ┆ one          ┆ 4     │
│ …    ┆ …    ┆ …            ┆ …     │

Running your query on pyspark yields:

spark = SparkSession.builder.getOrCreate()
(
    spark
    .createDataFrame(df.to_pandas())
    .groupBy("col1", "col2")
    .pivot("VariableName")
    .max("Value")
    .sort(["col1", "col2"])
    .show()
)

+----+----+----+----+-----+----+                                                
|col1|col2|four| one|three| two|
+----+----+----+----+-----+----+
|   A|   x|null|  12|   18|null|
|   A|   y|null|  16|   22|null|
|   A|   z|null|  20|   14|null|
|   B|   x|  15|null| null|  21|
|   B|   y|  19|null| null|  13|
|   B|   z|  23|null| null|  17|
+----+----+----+----+-----+----+

In Polars, we would code this using pivot.

(
    df.pivot(
        on="VariableName", 
        index=["col1", "col2"], 
        aggregate_function=pl.element().max()
    )
    .sort("col1", "col2")
)
