How to update rdd periodically in spark streaming

问题

My code is something like:

sc = SparkContext()
ssc = StreamingContext(sc, 30)

initRDD = sc.parallelize('path_to_data')
lines = ssc.socketTextStream('localhost', 9999)
res = lines.transform(lambda x: x.join(initRDD))

res.pprint()

And my question is that initRDD need to be updated every day in midnight.

I try to this way:

sc = SparkContext()
ssc = StreamingContext(sc, 30)

lines = ssc.socketTextStream('localhost', 9999)


def func(rdd):
    initRDD = rdd.context.parallelize('path_to_data')
    return rdd.join(initRDD)


res = lines.transform(func)

res.pprint()

But it seems that initRDD will be updated per 30s which same to batchDuration

Is there any good ideal

回答1:

One option would be to check for a deadline before the transform. The check is a simple comparison and hence cheap to do at each batch interval:

def nextDeadline() : Long = {
  // assumes midnight on UTC timezone.
  LocalDate.now.atStartOfDay().plusDays(1).toInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC).toEpochMilli()
}
// Note this is a mutable variable!
var initRDD = sparkSession.read.parquet("/tmp/learningsparkstreaming/sensor-records.parquet")
// Note this is a mutable variable!
var _nextDeadline = nextDeadline()

val lines = ssc.socketTextStream("localhost", 9999)
// we use the foreachRDD as a scheduling trigger. 
// We don't use the data, only the execution hook
lines.foreachRDD{ _ => 
    if (System.currentTimeMillis > _nextDeadline) {
      initRDD = sparkSession.read.parquet("/tmp/learningsparkstreaming/sensor-records.parquet")
      _nextDeadline = nextDeadline()
    }
}
// if the rdd was updated, it will be picked up in this stage.
val res = lines.transform(rdd => rdd.join(initRDD))
