Sean Owen commented on SPARK-14744: ----------------------------------- +1 and +1 for just removing the Cassandra code > Put examples packaging on a diet > -------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-14744 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14744 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Examples > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Marcelo Vanzin > Priority: Minor > > Currently the examples bring in a lot of external dependencies, ballooning > the size of the Spark distribution packages. > I'd like to propose two things to slim down these dependencies: > - make all non-Spark, and also Spark Streaming, dependencies "provided". This > means, especially for streaming connectors, that launching examples becomes > more like launching real applications (where you need to figure out how to > provide those dependencies, e.g. using {{--packages}}). > - audit examples and remove those that don't provide a lot of value. For > example, HBase is working on full-featured Spark bindings, based on code that > has already been in use for a while before being merged into HBase. The HBase > example in Spark is very bare bones and, in comparison, not really useful and > in fact a little misleading. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
