[Spark Structured Streaming] Processing the data path coming from kafka.
Hi ,
I have a use case where the file path of the json records stored in s3 are
coming as a kafka
message in kafka. I have to process the data using spark structured
streaming.
The design which I thought is as follows:
1. In kafka Spark structures streaming, read the message containing the
data path.
2. Collect the message record in driver. (Messages are small in sizes)
3. Create the dataframe from the datalocation.
kafkaDf.select($"value".cast(StringType))
.writeStream.foreachBatch((batchDf:DataFrame, batchId:Long) => {
//rough code
//collec to driver
val records = batchDf.collect()
//create dataframe and process
records foreach((rec: Row) =>{
println("records:######################",rec.toString())
val path = rec.getAs[String]("data_path")
val dfToProcess =spark.read.json(path)
....
})
}
I would like to know the views, if this approach is fine? Specifically
if there is some problem with
with creating the dataframe after calling collect.
If there is any better approach, please let know the same.

Amit Joshi

There you go:
@udf(returnType=ArrayType(StringType()))
def reader_udf(filename: str) -> List[str]:
with open(filename, "r") as f:
return f.read().split('\n')
def run_locally():
with utils.build_spark_session("Local", local=True) as spark:
df = spark.readStream.csv(r'testdata', schema=StructType([StructField('filename', StringType(), True)]))
df = df.withColumn('content', reader_udf(col('filename')))
q = df.select(explode('content')).writeStream.queryName('test').format('console')\
.option('truncate', False).start()
q.awaitTermination()

Hi Boris,
Thanks for your code block.
I understood what you are trying to achieve in the code.
But content in the file are json records seperated by new line.
And we have to make the dataframe out of it, as some processing has to be done on it.

Now each row contains the contents of the files, provided they are not large you can foreach() over the df/rdd and do whatever you want with it, such as json.loads()/etc.
If you know the shema of the jsons, you can later explode() them into a flat DF, ala https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38243717/spark-explode-nested-json-with-array-in-scala
Note that unless I am missing something you cannot access spark session from foreach as code is not running on the driver.
Please say if it makes sense or did I miss anything.

Hi Boris,
I need to do processing on the data present in the path.
That is the reason I am trying to make the dataframe.
Can you please provide the example of your solution?

Coming in late.. but if I understand correctly, you can simply use the fact
that spark.read (or readStream) will also accept a directory argument. If
you provide a directory spark will automagically pull in all the files in
that directory.
"""Reading in multiple files example"""
spark = SparkSession.builder.master('local[*]').appName('spark_streaming').getOrCreate()
# Schema for incoming data
json_schema = StructType([StructField("username", StringType(), True),
StructField("name", StringType(), True),
StructField("sex", StringType(), True),
StructField("address", StringType(), True),
StructField("mail", StringType(), True),
StructField("birthdate", DateType(), True),
StructField("work", StringType(), True),
StructField("salary", IntegerType(), True),
StructField("timestamp", TimestampType(), True)])
# Read in a bunch of data files (files are in JSON per line
format)data_directory_path = './data/my_directory'
# Create a Spark DF with a bunch of files
spark_df = spark.read.schema(json_schema).json(data_directory_path)

Why won’t you just map()/mapXXX() the kafkaDf with the mapping function that reads the paths?
