Update: I've updated my code and now I have the following JSON: https://gist.github.com/paladini/27bb5636d91dec79bd56 In the same link you can check the output from "spark-submit myPythonScript.py", where I call "myDataframe.show()". The following is printed by Spark (among other useless debug information):
That's correct for the given JSON input <https://gist.github.com/paladini/27bb5636d91dec79bd56> (gist link above)? How can I test if Spark can understand this DataFrame and make complex manipulations with that? Thank you! Hope you can help me soon :3 Fernando Paladini. 2015-10-05 15:23 GMT-03:00 Fernando Paladini <fnpalad...@gmail.com>: > Thank you for the replies and sorry about the delay, my e-mail client send > this conversation to Spam (??). > > I'll take a look in your tips and come back later to post my questions / > progress.
