Unable to run R code to read from Hive Table

Hi Everyone,

 

I am new to R and after reading a number of articles online, I thought of playing with it in Cloudera Data Science Workbench.

 

I have installed Sparklyr and trying to run the following code:

========================================================================== 

library(shiny)
library(ggplot2)
library(dygraphs)
library(circlize)
library(stringr)
library(xts)
library(sparklyr)
library(dplyr)

installLoadPkgs <- function(pkgList)
{
print(pkgList)
pkgsToLoad <- pkgList[!(pkgList %in% installed.packages()[,"Package"])];

if(length(pkgsToLoad)) {
install.packages(pkgsToLoad, dependencies = TRUE);
}

for(package_name in pkgList) {
library(package_name, character.only=TRUE, quietly=FALSE);
}
}

# install / load packages
startTime <- proc.time()
pkgs <- c("sparklyr", "dplyr", "ggplot2","maps", "geosphere", "DBI", "dygraphs", "circlize", "stringr", "xts")
proc.time() - startTime
installLoadPkgs(pkgs)

sc <- spark_connect(master="yarn-client", app_name='manual_monitoring')


assetstatuses_tbl <- copy_to(sc, "assetstatuses")

latestAssets_tbl <- assetstatuses_tbl %>%
filter(createdat > 2017-06-26) %>%
group_by(assetid, id) %>%
select(assetid, id)
sdf_register(latestAssets_tbl, "latestAssets")

==================================================================================== 

However, it's failing with the following error. Could anyone help me troubleshoot this?

 

assetstatuses_tbl <- copy_to(sc, "assetstatuses")

Hi,

 

Sparklyr is supported by RStudio, so it may be better to ask this question directory to RStudio or in a forum like StackOverflow.   However looking at the code it appears you are passing a string to copy_to rather than a dataframe.  If assetstatuses is a dataframe that is available, you can try copying it with copy_to(sc, assetstatuses) without quotes around assetstatuses.

 

See: http://spark.rstudio.com/reference/sparklyr/latest/copy_to.html

 

Best,
Tristan
