Nathan Howell commented on SPARK-18352:
---------------------------------------
Got hung up on some other stuff, haven't been able to get back to adding tests
yet. WIP code is up here:
https://github.com/NathanHowell/spark/commits/SPARK-18352
Question though. https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/15813 touches a bunch of
areas I was also working on. Do you think this patch will land soon? Should I
rework mine on top?
> Parse normal, multi-line JSON files (not just JSON Lines)

> Key: SPARK-18352

> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: SQL
> Reporter: Reynold Xin

> Spark currently can only parse JSON files that are JSON lines, i.e. each
> record has an entire line and records are separated by new line. In reality,
> a lot of users want to use Spark to parse actual JSON files, and are
> surprised to learn that it doesn't do that.
> We can introduce a new mode (wholeJsonFile?) in which we don't split the
> files, and rather stream through them to parse the JSON files.
