Thanks, Muru, very helpful suggestion! Delta Lake is amazing, completely
changed a few of my projects!

One question regarding that.
When I use the following statement, all works fine and I can use delta
properly, in the spark context that jupyter initiates automatically.

export PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON=jupyter
export PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON_OPTS='notebook --no-browser --port=8890'

PYSPARK_PYTHON=pyspark \
        --master yarn \
        --deploy-mode client \
        --driver-memory 4g \
        --executor-memory 16G \
        --executor-cores 1 \
        --num-executors 8 \
        --conf
spark.yarn.archive=hdfs://node-master:9000/libs/spark/jars/spark-libs.jar \
        --jars
hdfs://node-master:9000/libs/spark/common/spark-streaming-kafka-0-8-assembly_2.11-2.4.4.jar,hdfs://node-master:9000/libs/spark/common/delta-core_2.11-0.6.1.jar


However, I would like to have a local pyspark initially, and only connect
to YARN when the specific notebook is configured in that way.

1)

export PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON=jupyter
export PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON_OPTS='notebook --no-browser --port=8890'

PYSPARK_PYTHON=pyspark

2)
conf = spark.sparkContext._conf.setAll([
    ('spark.app.name', 'Delta Demo'),
    ('spark.yarn.jars',
'hdfs://node-master:9000/libs/spark/common/delta-core_2.11-0.6.1.jar'),
    ("spark.jars.packages", "io.delta:delta-core_2.11:0.6.1"),
    ("spark.sql.extensions", "io.delta.sql.DeltaSparkSessionExtension"),
    ("spark.sql.catalog.spark_catalog",
"org.apache.spark.sql.delta.catalog.DeltaCatalog")
    ])
spark.sparkContext.stop()

spark = SparkSession \
    .builder \
    .config(conf=conf) \
    .getOrCreate()
sc = spark.sparkContext

spark.sparkContext.addPyFile("hdfs://node-master:9000/libs/spark/common/delta-core_2.11-0.6.1.jar")
from delta.tables import *
delta_path = "/data/delta-table"
data = spark.range(0, 5)
data.show()
data.write.format("delta").mode("overwrite").save(delta_path)


This way, I keep facing with the ' Error: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
Failed to find data source: delta. ' error message.

What did I miss in my configuration/env variables?

Thanks
Andras
