You can store the list of keys (I believe you use them in source file path, right?) in a file, one key per line. Then you can read the file using sc.textFile (So you will get a RDD of file paths) and then apply your function as a map.
r = sc.textFile(list_file).map(your_function) HTH On Sun, Feb 12, 2017 at 10:04 PM, Sam Elamin <hussam.ela...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey folks > > Really simple question here.
