Hi Bo thanks much let me explain please see the following code
JavaPairRDD<String,PortableDataStream> pairRdd =
javaSparkContext.binaryFiles("/hdfs/path/to/binfile");
JavaRDD<PortableDataStream> javardd = pairRdd.values();
DataFrame binDataFrame = sqlContext.createDataFrame(javaBinRdd,
PortableDataStream.class);
binDataFrame.show(); //shows just one row with above file path
/hdfs/path/to/binfile
I want binary data in DataFrame from above file so that I can directly do
analytics on it. My data is binary so I cant use StructType
with primitive data types rigth since everything is binary/byte. My custom
data format in binary is same as Parquet I did not find any good example
where/how parquet is read into DataFrame. Please guide.
