Gravitino's Lance REST service depends on specific connector behaviors to ensure reliable operation. Using incompatible versions may result in: + +- Runtime errors or exceptions +- Data corruption or loss +- Unexpected behavior in query execution +- Performance degradation + +## Prerequisites + +Before proceeding, ensure the following requirements are met: + +1. **Gravitino Server**: A running Gravitino server instance with the Lance REST service enabled + - Default endpoint: `http://localhost:9101/lance` + +2. **Lance Catalog**: A Lance catalog created in Gravitino using either: + - Lance REST namespace API (`CreateNamespace` operation - see [Lance REST Service documentation](./lance-rest-service.md) + - Gravitino REST API, for more, please refer to [lakehouse-generic-catalog](./lakehouse-generic-catalog.md) + - Example catalog name: `lance_catalog` + +3. **Lance Spark Bundle** (for Spark integration): + - Downloaded `lance-spark` bundle JAR matching your Apache Spark version + - Note the absolute file path for configuration + +4. **Python Dependencies**: + - For Spark integration: `pyspark` + - For Ray integration: `ray`, `lance-namespace`, `lance-ray` + +## Spark Integration + +### Configuration + +The following example demonstrates how to configure a PySpark session to interact with Lance REST and perform table operations using Spark SQL. + +```python +from pyspark.sql import SparkSession +import os +import logging + +# Configure logging for debugging +logging. basicConfig(level=logging.INFO) + +# Configure Spark to use the lance-spark bundle +# Replace /path/to/lance-spark-bundle-3.5_2.12-0.0.15.jar with your actual JAR path +os.environ["PYSPARK_SUBMIT_ARGS"] = ( + "--jars /path/to/lance-spark-bundle-3.5_2.12-0.0.15.jar " + "--conf \"spark.driver.extraJavaOptions=--add-opens=java.base/sun.nio.ch=ALL-UNNAMED\" " + "--conf \"spark.executor.extraJavaOptions=--add-opens=java. base/sun.nio.ch=ALL-UNNAMED\" " + "--master local[1] pyspark-shell" +) + +# Initialize Spark session with Lance REST catalog configuration +# Note: The catalog "lance_catalog" must exist in Gravitino before running this code, you can create +# it via Lance REST API `CreateNameSpace` or Gravitino REST API `CreateCatalog`. +spark = SparkSession.builder \ + .appName("lance_rest_integration") \ + .config("spark.sql.catalog.lance", "com.lancedb.lance. spark.LanceNamespaceSparkCatalog") \ + .config("spark.sql.catalog.lance.impl", "rest") \ + .config("spark. sql.catalog.lance.uri", "http://localhost:9101/lance";) \ + .config("spark.sql.catalog.lance. parent", "lance_catalog") \ Review Comment: Sorry, I should have checked this silly mistake generated by AI tools -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
