AsterixDB Spark Connector

This an Apache Spark connector which allows it to consume data from Apache AstreixDB.

###Requirements

Java version 8
SBT version >= 0.3.17
Scala 2.10 (Never tested on 2.11)
Apache AsterixDB version >= 0.8.8 (up and running)

###Build

Clone and go the asterixdb-spark-connector directory.
Check project/Versions.scala if the specified versions of Apache Spark and Apache Hyracks are not similar to what you have.
run:

sbt package

Assembly JAR:

# The JAR file should be located at target/scala-2.10/asterixdb-spark-connector-assembly-SPARK_VERSION.jar
sbt assembly

Publish to local repo:

sbt publish

###Configuration

asterixdb-spark-connector requires to be configure using SparkConf (See the example for clarification):

Property Name	Default	Description
spark.asterix.connection.host	None	IP/Host of AsterixDB.
spark.asterix.connection.port	None	Port for AsterixDB HTTP API (Default: 19002).
spark.asterix.frame.size	None	The frame size of AsterixDB can be found in conf/asterix-configuration.xml file under Managix folder.

Optional configurations:

Property Name	Default	Description
spark.asterix.frame.number	2	Number of AsterixDB frames to read at a time. This should NOT be big as the intermediate result can consume large amount memory.
spark.asterix.reader.number	2	The number of parallel readers per AsterixDB result partition.
spark.asterix.prefetch.threshold	2	The remaining number of unread tuples before trigger the pre-fetcher. This should NOT be big as the intermediate result can consume large amount memory.

###Using the connector in your code

Using SBT and Maven

Build asterixdb-spark-connector and publish it to your local-repo:

sbt publish

Add SBT dependency to your build.sbt

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.asterix" %% "asterixdb-spark-connector" % $SPARK_VERSION

or add Maven dependency to your pom.xml

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.asterix</groupId>
        <artifactId>asterixdb-spark-connector_2.10</artifactId>
        <version>$SPARK_VERSION</version>
</dependency>

Replace $SPARK_VERSION with the required Apache Spark version

####Using spark-shell

Using local-repo to get the connector:

bin/spark-shell [--master Spark master address or ignore for local run] \\
--packages org.apache.asterix:asterixdb-spark-connector_2.10:SPARK_VERSION \\ 
--conf spark.asterix.connection.host=ASTERIXDB_HOST \\
--conf spark.asterix.connection.port=ASTERIXDB_PORT \\
--conf spark.asterix.frame.size=ASTERIXDB_FRAME_SIZE \\

Using Assembly JAR:

./bin/spark-shell --jars path/to/jar/asterixdb-spark-connector-assembly-SPARK_VERSION.jar
--conf spark.asterix.connection.host=ASTERIXDB_HOST \\
--conf spark.asterix.connection.port=ASTERIXDB_PORT \\
--conf spark.asterix.frame.size=ASTERIXDB_FRAME_SIZE \\
