Documentation problem
The title says that user should set SPARK_HOME
, but the actual command is setting SPARK_PATH
Suggestion
Fix misleading documentation.
@41ow1ives Thank you for the fast update. I'm a bit confused of below config
export SPARK_HOME=~/{YOUR-DOWNLOADED-SPARK-VERSION}
The environment variables seems to indicate the path of the home directory of spark but the {YOUR-DOWNLOADED-SPARK-VERSION}
seems to indicate a version. At first I thought, we have to set the environment like below
export SPARK_HOME=~/3.5.1
Wouldn't it be better to change ~/{YOUR-DOWNLOADED-SPARK-VERSION}
to {YOUR-SPARK-HOME-PATH}
or other words that match the meaning of the env variable?
Btw, I'm setting my environment variable using below setting(I've installed apache spark using homebrew in my Mac)
export SPARK_PATH=$(brew --prefix apache-spark)
Thank you so much for your meticulous review! As you pointed out, that part could definitely be misleading. I fully agree with your suggestion. To be consistent with the previous mention of {YOUR-JAVA-DIRECTORY}
, I will change it to {YOUR-SPARK-DIRECTORY}
.
If you have any more ideas, suggestions, or improvements, please feel free to share them at any time! We are very open to even trivial comments! Thank you for taking an interest; I truly appreciate it. Have a great day ๐
