holdenk commented on SPARK-8506:
--------------------------------

Thats what I thought would be a good solution. I can go ahead and implement if 
you thinks its a good idea too?

> SparkR does not provide an easy way to depend on Spark Packages when 
> performing init from inside of R

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SparkR
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
>            Reporter: holdenk
>            Priority: Minor

> While packages can be specified when using the sparkR or sparkSubmit scripts, 
> the programming guide tells people to create their spark context using the R 
> shell + init. The init does have a parameter for jars but no parameter for 
> packages. Setting the SPARKR_SUBMIT_ARGS overwrites some necessary 
> information. I think a good solution would just be adding another field to 
> the init function to allow people to specify packages in the same way as jars.
