Kevin Mader commented on SPARK-2759:
------------------------------------
I don't think I have the proper authority to assign issues in the system. I
made the issue in response to my own pull request here
(https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/1658) which Matei has responded to but it
is just a start.
> The ability to read binary files into Spark
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-2759
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2759
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Input/Output, Java API, Spark Core
> Reporter: Kevin Mader
>
> For reading images, compressed files, or other custom formats it would be
> useful to have methods that could read the files in as a byte array or
> DataInputStream so other functions could then process the data.
