Vincent Warmerdam commented on SPARK-8596:
------------------------------------------
I'm writing a small tutorial to get up to scratch with rstudio on AWS. It
works. The main issue seems that currently ec2 installs an old version of R
(3.1) while most packages like ggplot require a new version (3.2). I'm going to
share the tutorial with the Rstudio guys soon.
My approach is to run `spark/bin/start-all.sh` on the master node and then run
the following commands in Rstudio on the master node:
.libPaths( c( .libPaths(), '/root/spark/R/lib') )
Sys.setenv(SPARK_HOME = '/root/spark')
Sys.setenv(PATH = paste(Sys.getenv(c("PATH")), '/root/spark/bin', sep=':'))
library(SparkR)
sc <- sparkR.init('<SPARK MASTER ADR>')
sqlContext <- sparkRSQL.init(sc)
This works on my end, and I've been able to use the dataframe API with a json
blob on s3 with this sqlContext.
