Jianshi Huang commented on SPARK-6277: -------------------------------------- I see. Not relating to hadoop config is fine, how about env variables? It's quite often that I want to change one setting for particular tasks, editing spark-defaults.conf everytime is inconvenient. Env variables is a best fit here because of its dynamic scope. Typesafe's config has similar features for having env variables and it can even allow it override previous settings. https://github.com/typesafehub/config#optional-system-or-env-variable-overrides Jianshi > Allow Hadoop configurations and env variables to be referenced in > spark-defaults.conf > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-6277 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6277 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Spark Submit > Affects Versions: 1.3.0, 1.2.1 > Reporter: Jianshi Huang > > I need to set spark.local.dir to use user local home instead of /tmp, but > currently spark-defaults.conf can only allow constant values. > What I want to do is to write: > bq. spark.local.dir /home/${user.name}/spark/tmp > or > bq. spark.local.dir /home/${USER}/spark/tmp > Otherwise I would have to hack bin/spark-class and pass the option through > -Dspark.local.dir > Jianshi -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
