Chapter 313. Apache Spark Component

Available as of Camel version 2.17

This documentation page covers the Apache Spark component for the Apache Camel. The main purpose of the Spark integration with Camel is to provide a bridge between Camel connectors and Spark tasks. In particular Camel connector provides a way to route message from various transports, dynamically choose a task to execute, use incoming message as input data for that task and finally deliver the results of the execution back to the Camel pipeline.

313.1. Supported architectural styles
Copia collegamento

Spark component can be used as a driver application deployed into an application server (or executed as a fat jar).

Spark component can also be submitted as a job directly into the Spark cluster.

While Spark component is primary designed to work as a long running job serving as an bridge between Spark cluster and the other endpoints, you can also use it as a fire-once short job.   

313.2. Running Spark in OSGi servers
Copia collegamento

Currently the Spark component doesn’t support execution in the OSGi container. Spark has been designed to be executed as a fat jar, usually submitted as a job to a cluster. For those reasons running Spark in an OSGi server is at least challenging and is not support by Camel as well.

313.3. URI format
Copia collegamento

Currently the Spark component supports only producers - it it intended to invoke a Spark job and return results. You can call RDD, data frame or Hive SQL job.

  # RDD jobs 

To invoke an RDD job, use the following URI:

Spark RDD producer 

spark:rdd?rdd=#testFileRdd&rddCallback=#transformation
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

 Where rdd option refers to the name of an RDD instance (subclass of org.apache.spark.api.java.JavaRDDLike) from a Camel registry, while rddCallback refers to the implementation of org.apache.camel.component.spark.RddCallback interface (also from a registry). RDD callback provides a single method used to apply incoming messages against the given RDD. Results of callback computations are saved as a body to an exchange.

Spark RDD callback 

public interface RddCallback<T> {
    T onRdd(JavaRDDLike rdd, Object... payloads);
}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The following snippet demonstrates how to send message as an input to the job and return results:

Calling spark job 

String pattern = "job input";
long linesCount = producerTemplate.requestBody("spark:rdd?rdd=#myRdd&rddCallback=#countLinesContaining", pattern, long.class);
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The RDD callback for the snippet above registered as Spring bean could look as follows:

Spark RDD callback 

@Bean
RddCallback<Long> countLinesContaining() {
    return new RddCallback<Long>() {
        Long onRdd(JavaRDDLike rdd, Object... payloads) {
            String pattern = (String) payloads[0];
            return rdd.filter({line -> line.contains(pattern)}).count();
        }
    }
}

The RDD definition in Spring could looks as follows:

Spark RDD definition 

@Bean
JavaRDDLike myRdd(JavaSparkContext sparkContext) {
  return sparkContext.textFile("testrdd.txt");
}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

313.4.1. Void RDD callbacks
Copia collegamento

If your RDD callback doesn’t return any value back to a Camel pipeline, you can either return null value or use VoidRddCallback base class:

Spark RDD definition 

@Bean
RddCallback<Void> rddCallback() {
  return new VoidRddCallback() {
        @Override
        public void doOnRdd(JavaRDDLike rdd, Object... payloads) {
            rdd.saveAsTextFile(output.getAbsolutePath());
        }
    };
}

313.4.2. Converting RDD callbacks
Copia collegamento

If you know what type of the input data will be sent to the RDD callback, you can use ConvertingRddCallback and let Camel to automatically convert incoming messages before inserting those into the callback:

Spark RDD definition 

@Bean
RddCallback<Long> rddCallback(CamelContext context) {
  return new ConvertingRddCallback<Long>(context, int.class, int.class) {
            @Override
            public Long doOnRdd(JavaRDDLike rdd, Object... payloads) {
                return rdd.count() * (int) payloads[0] * (int) payloads[1];
            }
        };
    };
}

313.4.3. Annotated RDD callbacks
Copia collegamento

Probably the easiest way to work with the RDD callbacks is to provide class with method marked with @RddCallback annotation:

Annotated RDD callback definition 

import static org.apache.camel.component.spark.annotations.AnnotatedRddCallback.annotatedRddCallback;
 
@Bean
RddCallback<Long> rddCallback() {
    return annotatedRddCallback(new MyTransformation());
}
 
...
 
import org.apache.camel.component.spark.annotation.RddCallback;
 
public class MyTransformation {
 
    @RddCallback
    long countLines(JavaRDD<String> textFile, int first, int second) {
        return textFile.count() * first * second;
    }
 
}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

If you will pass CamelContext to the annotated RDD callback factory method, the created callback will be able to convert incoming payloads to match the parameters of the annotated method:

Body conversions for annotated RDD callbacks 

import static org.apache.camel.component.spark.annotations.AnnotatedRddCallback.annotatedRddCallback;
 
@Bean
RddCallback<Long> rddCallback(CamelContext camelContext) {
    return annotatedRddCallback(new MyTransformation(), camelContext);
}
 
...

 
import org.apache.camel.component.spark.annotation.RddCallback;
 
public class MyTransformation {
 
    @RddCallback
    long countLines(JavaRDD<String> textFile, int first, int second) {
        return textFile.count() * first * second;
    }
 
}
 
...
 
// Convert String "10" to integer
long result = producerTemplate.requestBody("spark:rdd?rdd=#rdd&rddCallback=#rddCallback" Arrays.asList(10, "10"), long.class);
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

 

313.5. DataFrame jobs
Copia collegamento

Instead of working with RDDs Spark component can work with DataFrames as well. 

To invoke an DataFrame job, use the following URI:

Spark RDD producer 

spark:dataframe?dataFrame=#testDataFrame&dataFrameCallback=#transformation
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

 Where dataFrame option refers to the name of an DataFrame instance (instances of org.apache.spark.sql.Dataset and org.apache.spark.sql.Row) from a Camel registry, while dataFrameCallback refers to the implementation of org.apache.camel.component.spark.DataFrameCallback interface (also from a registry). DataFrame callback provides a single method used to apply incoming messages against the given DataFrame. Results of callback computations are saved as a body to an exchange.

Spark RDD callback 

public interface DataFrameCallback<T> {
    T onDataFrame(Dataset<Row> dataFrame, Object... payloads);
}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The following snippet demonstrates how to send message as an input to a job and return results:

Calling spark job 

String model = "Micra";
long linesCount = producerTemplate.requestBody("spark:dataFrame?dataFrame=#cars&dataFrameCallback=#findCarWithModel", model, long.class);
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The DataFrame callback for the snippet above registered as Spring bean could look as follows:

Spark RDD callback 

@Bean
RddCallback<Long> findCarWithModel() {
    return new DataFrameCallback<Long>() {
        @Override
        public Long onDataFrame(Dataset<Row> dataFrame, Object... payloads) {
            String model = (String) payloads[0];
            return dataFrame.where(dataFrame.col("model").eqNullSafe(model)).count();
        }
    };
}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The DataFrame definition in Spring could looks as follows:

Spark RDD definition 

@Bean
Dataset<Row> cars(HiveContext hiveContext) {
    Dataset<Row> jsonCars = hiveContext.read().json("/var/data/cars.json");
    jsonCars.registerTempTable("cars");
    return jsonCars;
}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

313.6. Hive jobs
Copia collegamento

 Instead of working with RDDs or DataFrame Spark component can also receive Hive SQL queries as payloads. To send Hive query to Spark component, use the following URI:

Spark RDD producer 

spark:hive
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The following snippet demonstrates how to send message as an input to a job and return results:

Calling spark job 

long carsCount = template.requestBody("spark:hive?collect=false", "SELECT * FROM cars", Long.class);
List<Row> cars = template.requestBody("spark:hive", "SELECT * FROM cars", List.class);
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The table we want to execute query against should be registered in a HiveContext before we query it. For example in Spring such registration could look as follows:

Spark RDD definition 

@Bean
Dataset<Row> cars(HiveContext hiveContext) {
     jsonCars = hiveContext.read().json("/var/data/cars.json");
    jsonCars.registerTempTable("cars");
    return jsonCars;
}
