Hi, Does this mean that handling any Json with kind of below schema with spark is not a good fit?? I have requirement to parse the below Json that spans across multiple lines. Whats the best way to parse the jsns of this kind?? Please suggest.
root |-- maindate: struct (nullable = true) | |-- mainidnId: string (nullable = true) |-- Entity: array (nullable = true) | |-- element: struct (containsNull = true) | | |-- Profile: struct (nullable = true) | | | |-- Kind: string (nullable = true) | | |-- Identifier: string (nullable = true) | | |-- Group: array (nullable = true) | | | |-- element: struct (containsNull = true) | | | | |-- Period: struct (nullable = true) | | | | | |-- pid: string (nullable = true) | | | | | |-- pDate: string (nullable = true) | | | | | |-- quarter: long (nullable = true) | | | | | |-- labour: array (nullable = true) | | | | | | |-- element: struct (containsNull = true) | | | | | | | |-- category: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | |-- id: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | |-- person: struct (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | |-- address: array (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- element: struct (containsNull = true) | | | | | | | | | | |-- city: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | | |-- line1: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | | |-- line2: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | | |-- postalCode: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | | |-- state: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | | |-- type: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | |-- familyName: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | |-- tax: array (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | |-- element: struct (containsNull = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- code: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- qwage: double (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- qvalue: double (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- qSubjectvalue: double (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- qfinalvalue: double (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- ywage: double (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- yalue: double (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- ySubjectvalue: double (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- yfinalvalue: double (nullable = true) | | | | | | | |-- tProfile: array (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | |-- element: struct (containsNull = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- isExempt: boolean (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- jurisdiction: struct (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | | |-- code: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- maritalStatus: string (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | | |-- numberOfDeductions: long (nullable = true) | | | | | | | |-- wDate: struct (nullable = true) | | | | | | | | |-- originalHireDate: string (nullable = true) | | | | | |-- year: long (nullable = true) From: Luciano Resende [mailto:luckbr1...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, October 10, 2016 11:39 PM To: Jean Georges Perrin Cc: user @spark Subject: Re: JSON Arrays and Spark Please take a look at http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-programming-guide.html#json-datasets Particularly the note at the required format : Note that the file that is offered as a json file is not a typical JSON file. Each line must contain a separate, self-contained valid JSON object. As a consequence, a regular multi-line JSON file will most often fail.
