I have seen a few questions on the mailing list related to accessing resource pools from the front end, and some pull requests related to downloading the result.
(https://github.com/apache/incubator-zeppelin/pull/761, https://github.com/apache/incubator-zeppelin/pull/725) Unfortunately, from brief inspection, these are working in javascript, so cannot deal with data larger than the browser can handle (which is quite easy to create with some of these big data tools). Fortunately, there is a design that addresses this (in part): https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ZEPPELIN/Helium+proposal Wouldn't it be nice to use that same idea to allow for downloading TSV files some day? Maybe today can be that day. Here are three tickets that cover using resource pools to download results: https://github.com/apache/incubator-zeppelin/pull/782 https://github.com/apache/incubator-zeppelin/pull/816 https://github.com/apache/incubator-zeppelin/pull/822 The third one contains everything that the first two do, but they're probably worth reviewing independently because they're separate pieces of functionality. What do you think? I bring it up on the mailing list because other pull requests quasi-related to this are popping up, and I hope this can be merged so that those other pull requests can make use of this to their advantage.
