Greetings, We are hoping to merge in GEODE-9 to develop. GEODE-9 is the feature work for the gemfire/geode- spark connector. This work had previously been done on a private repo prior to Geode being in incubation and is quite large.
This merge will create a sub project in Geode named gemfire-spark-connector. This project uses sbt to do it's build and has not yet been connected to the Geode build system. There will be future work to better incorporate it with the gradle as well as removing the geode jar dependency. This project has a separate set of readme/tutorial docs as well as it's own tests and integration tests. These also have not been integrated with the automated testing and will need to be included at some point. The hope was to get this merged in and do the remaining work in smaller, easier to digest chunks as well as possibly getting other contributors helping with these efforts. Currently there is a review for this entire change at: https://reviews.apache.org/r/36731/ It will probably be easier to just get a checkout of the branch to see what it looks like. Please voice any concerns, suggestions or questions on this thread. Thanks!
