KafkaUtils class not found in Spark streaming

Question

I have just began with Spark Streaming and I am trying to build a sample application that counts words from a Kafka stream. Although it compiles with sbt package

Answer 1

import org.apache.spark.streaming.kafka.KafkaUtils

use the below in build.sbt

---

name := "kafka"

version := "0.1"

scalaVersion := "2.11.12"

retrieveManaged := true

fork := true

//libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" % "spark-streaming_2.11" % "2.2.0"
//libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" % "spark-streaming-kafka-0-8_2.11" % "2.1.0"

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-core" % "2.2.0"

//libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-sql" % "2.2.0"

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-streaming" % "2.2.0"

// https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.spark/spark-streaming-kafka-0-8
libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-streaming-kafka-0-8" % "2.2.0" % "provided"

// https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.spark/spark-streaming-kafka-0-8-assembly
libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-streaming-kafka-0-8-assembly" % "2.2.0"

This will fix the issue
