Spark Example Project Build Status

Introduction

This is a simple word count job written in Scala for the Spark spark cluster computing platform, with instructions for running on [Amazon Elastic MapReduce] emr in non-interactive mode. The code is ported directly from Twitter's [WordCountJob] wordcount for Scalding.

This was built by the Data Science team at [Snowplow Analytics] snowplow, who use Spark on their [Data pipelines and algorithms] data-pipelines-algos projects.

Building

Assuming git, [Vagrant] vagrant-install and [VirtualBox] virtualbox-install installed:

 host> git clone https://github.com/snowplow/spark-example-project
 host> cd spark-example-project
 host> vagrant up && vagrant ssh
guest> cd /vagrant
guest> sbt assembly

The 'fat jar' is now available as:

target/spark-example-project-0.4.0.jar

Unit testing

The assembly command above runs the test suite - but you can also run this manually with:

$ sbt test
<snip>
[info] + A WordCount job should
[info]   + count words correctly
[info] Passed: : Total 1, Failed 0, Errors 0, Passed 1, Skipped 0

Running on Amazon EMR

Prepare

Create:

  1. An AWS CLI profile, e.g. spark
  2. An Amazon S3 bucket, e.g. spark-example-project-your-name
  3. A EC2 keypair, e.g. spark-ec2-keypair
  4. A VPC public subnet, e.g. subnet-3dc2bd2a

Make sure you have assembled the jarfile (see above).

Upload and run

guest> inv upload spark spark-example-project-your-name
guest> inv run_emr spark spark-example-project-your-name spark-ec2-keypair subnet-3dc2bd2a

You can now monitor the running EMR jobflow in the AWS Elastic MapReduce UI.

Inspect

Once the job has completed, you should see a folder structure like this in your output bucket:

 results
 |
 +- _SUCCESS
 +- part-00000
 +- part-00001

Download the files and check that one file contains:

(hello,1)
(world,2)

while another file contains:

(goodbye,1)

Running on your own Spark cluster

If you have successfully run this on your own Spark cluster, we would welcome a pull-request updating the instructions in this section.
