----------------------------------
Summary: Eliminate JDK Requirement in PySpark Installation
Key: SPARK-46910
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-46910
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: PySpark
Affects Versions: 3.5.0
Reporter: Amanda Liu
PySpark requires users to have the correct JDK version (JDK 8+ for Spark<4; JDK
17+ for Spark>=4) installed locally.
We can make the Spark installation script install the JDK, so users don’t need
to do this step manually.
h1. Details
# When the entry point for a Spark class is invoked, the spark-class script
checks if Java is installed in the user environment.
# If Java is not installed, the user is prompted to select whether they want
to install JDK 17.
# If the user selects yes, JDK 17 is installed (using the [install-jdk
library|https://pypi.org/project/install-jdk/]) and JAVA_HOME variable and
RUNNER are set appropriately. The Spark build will now work!
# If the user selects no, we provide them a brief description of how to
install JDK manually.
