Yanbo Liang created SPARK-17577: ----------------------------------- 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}}. -- 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
