How to install spark locally
Considering spark without hadoop built-in.
- Download hadoop unpack to
/opt/hadoop/
- Download spark without hadoop, unpack to
/opt/spark
- Install java. Set JAVA_HOVE environment variable. For example:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
- create environment variables required for spark to run. One can put those in
.bashrc
export HADOOP_HOME=/opt/hadoop
export SPARK_DIST_CLASSPATH=$HADOOP_HOME/etc/hadoop/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/common/lib/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/common/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/hdfs/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/hdfs/lib/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/hdfs/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/yarn/lib/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/yarn/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/mapreduce/lib/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/mapreduce/*:$HADOOP_HOME/share/hadoop/tools/lib/*
Now you can run pyspark for example:
$ /opt/spark/bin/pyspark

Running pyspark in jupyter notebooks locally
To open interactive pyspark session in jupyter notebooks do this:
export PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON=jupyter
export PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON_OPTS='notebook'
/opt/spark/bin/pyspark
Here jupyter server running locally connects to the spark running locally.
Troubleshooting
if you get
/opt/spark/bin$ ./pyspark

that means that you haven’t set SPARK_DIST_CLASSPATH
(spark cannot find slf4j which is needed for logging)
