[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-18829) Printing to logger

["Alexander Tronchin-James (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18829?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16887450#comment-16887450 ] 

Alexander Tronchin-James commented on SPARK-18829:
--------------------------------------------------

FWIW, the showString method on datasets is private, so it doesn't seem possible to call except by internal Dataset methods.

> I would like to print dataframe.show or  df.explain(true)  into log file.
> right now the code print to standard output without a way to redirect it.
> It also cannot be configured on log4j.properties.
> My suggestion is to write to the logger and standard output.
> i.e 
> class DataFrame {......
> override def explain(extended: Boolean): Unit = {
>     val explain = ExplainCommand(queryExecution.logical, extended = extended)
>     sqlContext.executePlan(explain).executedPlan.executeCollect().foreach {
>       // scalastyle:off println
>       r => {
>                 println(r.getString(0))
>                 logger.debug(r.getString(0))
>       }
>      }
>       // scalastyle:on println
>     }
>   }
> def show(numRows: Int, truncate: Boolean): Unit = {
> val str =showString(numRows, truncate) 
> println(str)
> logger.debug(str)
> }
> }
