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

             Summary: jsonRDD with schema should ignore sub-objects that are 
omitted in schema
                 Key: SPARK-5443
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5443
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
            Reporter: Derrick Burns


Reading the code for jsonRDD, it appears that all fields of a JSON object are 
read into a ROW independent of the provided schema. I would expect it to be 
more efficient to only store in the ROW those fields that are explicitly 
included in the schema. 

For example, assume that I only wish to extract the "id" field of a tweet.  If 
I provided a schema that simply had one field within a map named "id", then the 
row object would only store that field within a map.
