Thanks. I’ll look into it. But the JSON string I push via receiver goes through 
a series of transformations, before it ends up in the final RDD. I need to take 
care to ensure that this magic value propagates all the way down to the last 
one that I’m iterating on.

Currently, I’m calling “stop" from the receiver once its done fetching all the 
records and have a StreamingListener to act on  it via the “onReceiverStopped” 
hook through which I’m stopping the streamingContext and it seems to be working 
except that I see this message "2015-04-06 16:41:48,002 WARN 
[StreamingListenerBus] org.apache.spark.Logging$class.logWarning - All of the 
receivers have not deregistered, Map(0 -> 
ReceiverInfo(0,ElasticSearchResponseReceiver-0,null,false,localhost,XYZ,)):

Is this not advised? BTW I’m running in local mode.
