Hello all,
I have to read data from Kafka topic at regular intervals. I create the dataframe as shown below. I don’t want to start reading from the beginning on each run. At the same time, I don’t want to miss the messages between run intervals. val queryDf = sqlContext .read .format("kafka") .option("kafka.bootstrap.servers", hosts) .option("enable.auto.commit", true) .option("subscribe", topicName) .option("auto.commit.interval.ms", 1000) .option("startingOffsets", " latest") //?? earliest OR latest .load() .selectExpr("CAST(value AS STRING) as message") I would like to understand where the offsets will be stored, so that I can supply it each time the application starts. Or is there a way to supply a custom location where to store the offsets. This is not a Steaming application. So, I am not sure if checkpoint directory is valid in this case. Any pointers would be highly helpful. thanks, Vishal ________________________________ This message is confidential and is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
