Spark Scala Streaming CSV

Question

I am new in Spark/Scala. I know how to load CSV files:

    sqlContext.read.format(\"csv\")

and how to read text streams and file streams:

Answer 1

Here you go:

val ssc = new StreamingContext(sparkConf, Seconds(5))


    // Create the FileInputDStream on the directory
    val lines = ssc.textFileStream("file:///C:/foo/bar")

    lines.foreachRDD(rdd => {
        if (!rdd.isEmpty()) {
          println("RDD row count: " + rdd.count())
         // Now you can convert this RDD to DataFrame/DataSet and perform business logic.  

        }
      }
    })

    ssc.start()
    ssc.awaitTermination()
  } 

Answer 2

You can stream your Csv file easily by using spark 2.2 structured streaming.
