Use Spark to list all files in a Hadoop HDFS directory?

Question

I want to loop through all text files in a Hadoop dir and count all the occurrences of the word \"error\". Is there a way to do a hadoop fs -ls /users/ubuntu/ to li

Answer 1

You can use a wildcard:

val errorCount = sc.textFile("hdfs://some-directory/*")
                   .flatMap(_.split(" ")).filter(_ == "error").count

Answer 2

import org.apache.hadoop.fs.{FileSystem, FileUtil, Path}
import scala.collection.mutable.Stack


val fs = FileSystem.get( sc.hadoopConfiguration )
var dirs = Stack[String]()
val files = scala.collection.mutable.ListBuffer.empty[String]
val fs = FileSystem.get(sc.hadoopConfiguration)

dirs.push("/user/username/")

while(!dirs.isEmpty){
    val status = fs.listStatus(new Path(dirs.pop()))
    status.foreach(x=> if(x.isDirectory) dirs.push(x.getPath.toString) else 
    files+= x.getPath.toString)
}
files.foreach(println)
