I am able to connect by doing the following using the Tableau Initial SQL
and a custom query:
1.
First ingest csv file or json and save out to file system:
import org.apache.spark.sql.SQLContext
import com.databricks.spark.csv._
val sqlContext = new SQLContext(sc)
val demo = sqlContext.csvFile("/user/data/csv/demo.csv")
demo.toJSON.saveAsTextFile("/user/data/json/test”)
2.
Start $SPARK_HOME/sbin/start-thirftserver:
./sbin/start-thriftserver.sh --master spark://radtech.io:7077
--total-executor-cores 2 --driver-class-path --hiveconf
hive.server2.thrift.port=10001 --hiveconf
hive.server2.thrift.bind.host radtech.io
3.
Start tableau session. Create a connection to thrift server via SparkSQL
(Beta) connector.
4.
In Tableau add the following to the “Initial SQL”
create temporary table test
using org.apache.spark.sql.json
options (path '/user/data/json/test/*’);
cache table test;
1. Refresh connection.
Then select “New Custom SQL” and issue something like:
select * from test;
You will see your table appear.
HTH.
