             Summary: SparkR support add files to Spark job and get by executors
                 Key: SPARK-17577
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17577
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SparkR
            Reporter: Yanbo Liang


Scala/Python users can add files to Spark job by submit options {{--files}} or 
{{SparkContext.addFile()}}. Meanwhile, users can get the added file by 
{{SparkFiles.get(filename)}}.
We should also support this function for SparkR users, since SparkR users may 
install third party R packages on each executors. For examples, SparkR users 
can download third party R packages to driver firstly, add these files to the 
Spark job by this API and each executor can install these packages by 
{{install.packages}}.
