如何将csv读入sparkR ver 1.4？

Question

随着spark(1.4)的新版本发布,似乎有一个很好的前端interfeace spark从R名为包sparkR.在R for spark的文档页面上,有一个命令可以将json文件作为RDD对象读取

people <- read.df(sqlContext, "./examples/src/main/resources/people.json", "json")

我试图从这个革命政治博客中.csv描述的文件中读取数据

# Download the nyc flights dataset as a CSV from https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/sparkr-data/nycflights13.csv

# Launch SparkR using 
# ./bin/sparkR --packages com.databricks:spark-csv_2.10:1.0.3

# The SparkSQL context should already be created for you as sqlContext
sqlContext
# Java ref type org.apache.spark.sql.SQLContext id 1

# Load the flights CSV file using `read.df`. Note that we use the CSV reader Spark package here.
flights <- read.df(sqlContext, "./nycflights13.csv", "com.databricks.spark.csv", header="true")

说明我需要一个spark-csv包来启用此操作.所以我用这个命令从这个github repo下载了这个包:

$ bin/spark-shell --packages com.databricks:spark-csv_2.10:1.0.3

但是在尝试读取.csv文件时遇到了这样的错误.

> flights <- read.df(sqlContext, "./nycflights13.csv", "com.databricks.spark.csv", header="true")

关于这个错误的含义以及如何解决这个问题的任何想法？

当然,我可以尝试以.csv标准方式阅读,例如:

read.table("data.csv") -> flights

然后我可以转化ř data.frame到spark的DataFrame是这样的:

flightsDF <- createDataFrame(sqlContext, flights)

但这不是我喜欢的方式,而且非常耗时.

Answer 1

你必须每次启动sparkR控制台,如下所示:

sparkR --packages com.databricks:spark-csv_2.10:1.0.3

Answer 2

如果您正在使用Rstudio:

 library(SparkR)
 Sys.setenv('SPARKR_SUBMIT_ARGS'='"--packages" "com.databricks:spark-csv_2.10:1.0.3" "sparkr-shell"')
 sqlContext <- sparkRSQL.init(sc)

诀窍.确保为spark-csv指定的版本与您下载的版本匹配.
