---------------------------------------------------------------------

I was basing my suggestion of JSON on allowing specifying JSON strings inline 
as configuration, but I guess one could also specify a YAML file with the 
template and have spark configuration point to that file. [~skonto], you make a 
good point, it is another configuration mechanism that people may have to 
learn. This decision should be based more on UX and consistency with what Spark 
users expect in general. [~eje], to your point, I think we could support both 
if needed, but it might be prudent to find the one that's more intuitive to 
users in order to do first.

Sidenote: There's also [jsonpath|https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/kubectl/] 
that kubectl supports but that could be overkill here.

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Kubernetes
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.0

>            Priority: Major

> With more requests for customizing the driver and executor pods coming, the 
> current approach of adding new Spark configuration options has some serious 
> drawbacks: 1) it means more Kubernetes specific configuration options to 
> maintain, and 2) it widens the gap between the declarative model used by 
> Kubernetes and the configuration model used by Spark. We should start 
> designing a solution that allows users to specify pod templates as central 
> places for all customization needs for the driver and executor pods.
