Matthew Farrellee commented on SPARK-2003:
------------------------------------------
first up - reproducer should be closer to:
from pyspark import SparkConf, SparkContext
conf = SparkConf().setAppName("blah").setMaster('local')
sc = SparkContext(conf)
documentation says -
conf = SparkConf().setAppName(appName).setMaster(master)
sc = SparkContext(conf)
however, there's a confounding issue:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File
"/home/matt/Documents/Repositories/spark/dist/python/pyspark/context.py", line
94, in __init__
SparkContext._ensure_initialized(self, gateway=gateway)
File
"/home/matt/Documents/Repositories/spark/dist/python/pyspark/context.py", line
197, in _ensure_initialized
currentMaster = SparkContext._active_spark_context.master
AttributeError: 'SparkContext' object has no attribute 'master'
this additional issue appears to be the result of adding an _ensure_initialized
call before self.master is set
> SparkContext(SparkConf) doesn't work in pyspark

> Key: SPARK-2003
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2003
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation, PySpark
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Diana Carroll
>
> Using SparkConf with SparkContext as described in the Programming Guide does
> NOT work in Python:
> conf = SparkConf.setAppName("blah")
> sc = SparkContext(conf)
> When I tried I got
> AttributeError: 'SparkConf' object has no attribute '_get_object_id'
> [This equivalent code in Scala works fine:
> val conf = new SparkConf().setAppName("blah")
> val sc = new SparkContext(conf)]
> I think this is because there's no equivalent for the Scala constructor
> SparkContext(SparkConf).
> Workaround:
> If I explicitly set the conf parameter in the python call, it does work:
> sconf = SparkConf.setAppName("blah")
> sc = SparkContext(conf=sconf)
