Getting the hivecontext from a dataframe - apache-spark

I am creating a hivecontext instead of sqlcontext to create adtaframe
val conf=new SparkConf().setMaster("yarn-cluster")
val context=new SparkContext(conf)
//val sqlContext=new SQLContext(context)
val hiveContext=new HiveContext(context)
val data=Seq(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10).map(x=>(x.toLong,x+1,x+2.toDouble)).toDF("ts","value","label")
//outdta is a dataframe
data.registerTempTable("df")
//val hiveTest=hiveContext.sql("SELECT * from df where ts < percentile(BIGINT ts, 0.5)")
val ratio1=hiveContext.sql("SELECT percentile_approx(ts, array (0.5,0.7)) from df")
I need to get the exact hive context from ratio1 and not again create a hivecontext from the povidedsql context in the dataframe, I don't know why spark don't give me a hivecontext from dataframe and it just gives sqlcontext.

If you use HiveCOntext, then the runtime-type of df.sqlContext is HiveContext (HiveContext is a subtype of SQLContext), therefore you can do:
val hiveContext = df.sqlContext.asInstanceOf[HiveContext]

Create table in hive through spark

I am trying to connect to Hive through Spark using below code but unable to do so. The code fails with NoSuchDatabaseException Database 'raw' not found. I have database named 'raw' in hive. What am I missing here?
val spark = SparkSession
.builder()
.appName("Connecting to hive")
.config("hive.metastore.uris", "thrift://myserver.domain.local:9083")
.enableHiveSupport()
.getOrCreate()
import spark.implicits._
import spark.sql
val frame = Seq(("one", 1), ("two", 2), ("three", 3)).toDF("word", "count")
frame.show()
frame.write.mode("overwrite").saveAsTable("raw.temp1")
Output for spark.sql("SHOW DATABASES")

how to write spark context in java in spark 1.6.3 , so that to convert file into dataframe.

i have tried like this. but no luck.File1 and file2 are in my local machine. Not in the hdfs. Please help.
SparkConf sparkConf = new SparkConf().setAppName("sample");
SparkContext sc = new SparkContext(sparkConf);
SQLContext sqlContext = SQLContext.getOrCreate(sc);
val file1=sc.textFile("file1.txt", minPartitions);
val file2=sc.textFile("file2.txt", minPartitions);

I am able to connect to the Hive database using pyspark but when i run my program data is not showing

I have written the below code to read the data from HIVE table and when I am trying to run no compilation errors and no data displaying.
from pyspark import SparkConf, SparkContext
from pyspark.sql import SQLContext, HiveContext, SparkSession
import os
os.environ['PYSPARK_SUBMIT_ARGS'] = '--jars hive-jdbc-2.1.0.jar
pyspark-shell'
sparkConf = SparkConf().setAppName("App")
sc = SparkContext(conf=sparkConf)
sqlContext = SQLContext(sc)
hiveContext = HiveContext(sc);
source_df = hiveContext.read.format('jdbc').options(
url='jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000/sample',
driver='org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver',
dbtable='abc',
user='root',
password='root').load()
print source_df.show()
When i run this, I am getting below output and not able to fetch the
data from table.
+--------+------+
|abc.name|abc.id|
+--------+------+
+--------+------+
Just try
df = hiveContext.read.table("your_hive_table") //reads from default db
df = hiveContext.read.table("your_db.your_hive_table") //reads from your db
you could also do
df = hiveContext.sql("select * from your_table")

New SQLContext: Spark 1.6 backward-compatibility with Spark 2.1

On IBM DSX I have the following problem.
For the Spark 1.6 kernels on DSX it was/is necessary to create new SQLContext objects in order to avoid issues with the metastore_db and HiveContext : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38117849/you-must-build-spark-with-hive-export-spark-hive-true/38118112#38118112
The following code snippets were implemented using Spark 1.6 and both run for Spark 2.0.2, but not for Spark 2.1:
from pyspark.sql import SQLContext
sqlContext = SQLContext(sc)
df = sqlContext.createDataFrame([(1, "a"), (2, "b"), (3, "c"), (4, "d")], ("k", "v"))
df.count()
and
from pyspark.sql import SQLContext
sqlContext = SQLContext(sc)
properties= {
'jdbcurl': 'JDBCURL',
'user': 'USER',
'password': 'PASSWORD!'
}
data_df_1 = sqlContext.read.jdbc(properties['jdbcurl'], table='GOSALES.BRANCH', properties=properties)
data_df_1.head()
I get this error:
IllegalArgumentException: u"Error while instantiating 'org.apache.spark.sql.hive.HiveSessionState':"
However, when I execute the same code a second time it works again.
Instead of creating a new SQLContext using SQLContext(sc) you can use SQLContext.getOrCreate(sc). This will return an existing SQLContext if it exists.
IIRC, creating a new SQLContext was only necessary for the legacy Spark services (bluemix_ipythonspark_16) in Bluemix. DSX supports only the newer services (bluemix_jupyter_bundle), where creating a new SQLContext is more likely to create problems with Hive than to solve them. Please try without.

Spark 2.0 - Databricks xml reader Input path does not exist

I am trying to use Databricks XML file reader api.
Sample code:
val spark = SparkSession
.builder()
.master("local[*]")
.appName("Java Spark SQL basic example")
.config("spark.sql.warehouse.dir", "file:///C:/TestData")
.getOrCreate();
//val sqlContext = new SQLContext(sc)
val df = spark.read
.format("com.databricks.spark.xml")
.option("rowTag", "book")
.load("books.xml")
df.show()
If i give the file path directly , its looking for some warehouse directory. so i set the spark.sql.warehouse.dir option, but now it throws Input path does not exist.
It is actually looking under the project root directory , why is it looking for project root directory?
Finally its working.. We need to specify warehouse directory as well pass the absolute file path in the load method. I am not sure what is the use of warehouse directory.
The main part is we dont need to give C: as mentioned by other Stackoverflow answer.
working code:
val spark = SparkSession
.builder()
.master("local[*]")
.appName("Java Spark SQL basic example")
.config("spark.sql.warehouse.dir", "file:///TestData/")
.getOrCreate();
//val sqlContext = new SQLContext(sc)
val df = spark.read
.format("com.databricks.spark.xml")
.option("rowTag", "book")
.load("file:///TestData/books.xml")
df.show()
