We tried something like below : from py4j.java_gateway import java_import java_import(sparkContext._jvm,'<mynamespace>') myScalaClass = sparkContext._jvm.SimpleScalaClass () myScalaClass.sayHello(“World”) Works Fine But When we try to pass sparkContext to our class it fails like below myContext = _jvm.MySQLContext(sparkContext) fails with AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last) <ipython-input-19-34330244f574> in <module>() ----> 1 z = _jvm.MySQLContext(sparkContext) C:\Users\i033085\spark\python\lib\py4j-0.8.2.1-src.zip\py4j\java_gateway.py in __call__(self, *args) 690 691 args_command = ''.join( --> 692 [get_command_part(arg, self._pool) for arg in new_args]) 693 694 command = CONSTRUCTOR_COMMAND_NAME +\ C:\Users\i033085\spark\python\lib\py4j-0.8.2.1-src.zip\py4j\protocol.py in get_command_part(parameter, python_proxy_pool) 263 command_part += ';' + interface 264 else: --> 265 command_part = REFERENCE_TYPE + parameter._get_object_id() 266 267 command_part += '\n' attributeError: 'SparkContext' object has no attribute '_get_object_id' And myContext = _jvm.MySQLContext(sparkContext._jsc) fails with Constructor org.apache.spark.sql.MySQLContext([class org.apache.spark.api.java.JavaSparkContext]) does not exist Would this be possible … or there are serialization issues and hence not possible. If not what are the options we have to instantiate our own SQLContext written in scala from pySpark… Best Regards, Santosh -- Cell : 425-233-8271 Twitter: https://twitter.com/holdenkarau Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/holdenkarau
