How do I run R script for sparkR?

问题

I am running sparkR 2.0.0 from the terminal, and I can run R commands. However, how do I create a .r script and be able to run in it within the spark session.

回答1:

SparkR uses standard R interpreter so the same rules apply. If you want to execute external script inside current session use source function.

If you want to submit a standalone script outside existing SparkR session you should initialize required context in the script itself. After that you can execute it using SPARK_HOME/bin/spark-submit (preferred option) or even Rscript.
