Michael Armbrust commented on SPARK-16407: ------------------------------------------ You are taking an experimental interface, which among other problems exposes both deprecated APIs (SQLContext) and internal APIs (org.apache.spark.sql.execution.streaming.Sink), and elevating it into the primary user facing datasource API (DataStreamWriter). I think this is premature and counter to the compatibility practices that we usually follow in Spark. > Allow users to supply custom StreamSinkProviders > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: SPARK-16407 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-16407 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Streaming > Reporter: holdenk > > The current DataStreamWriter allows users to specify a class name as format, > however it could be easier for people to directly pass in a specific provider > instance - e.g. for user equivalent of ForeachSink or other sink with > non-string parameters. -- 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
