[cqlsh 5.0.1 | Cassandra 3.0.11.1485 | DSE 5.0.5 | CQL spec 3.4.0 | Native proto
using spark-cassandra-connector 1.6.8
I tried to implement below code.. import is not working.
val rdd: RDD[SomeType] = ... // create some RDD to save import
com.datastax.bdp.spark.writer.BulkTableWriter._
rdd.bulkSaveToCassandra(keyspace, table)
Can someone suggest me how to implement this code. Are they any dependenceis required for this.
Cassandra Spark Connector has saveToCassandra
method that could be used like this (taken from documentation):
val collection = sc.parallelize(Seq(("cat", 30), ("fox", 40)))
collection.saveToCassandra("test", "words", SomeColumns("word", "count"))
There is also saveAsCassandraTableEx
that allows you to control schema creation, and other things - it's also described in documentation referenced above.
To use them you need to import com.datastax.spark.connector._
described in "Connecting to Cassandra" document.
And you need to add corresponding dependency - but this depends on what build system do you use.
The bulkSaveToCassandra
method is available only when you're using DSE's connector. You need to add corresponding dependencies - see documentation for more details. But even primary developer of Spark connector says that it's better use saveToCassandra
instead of it.
