Shipping R packages to the nodes in SparkR

Question

嗨，我想知道是否存在一种解决方案，可以通过spark-submit运送R软件包并在SparkR的计算节点上使用它们？

Answer 1

Zip the contents of the R package and ship it as my_package.zip to the cluster, ie with the spark-submit command. This will place the zip file into the working directory of the SparkR script.

Then you can install the package within your R script:

 install.packages("my_package.zip",repos=NULL)
 library(my_package)

DISCLAIMER: If your package depends on other packages, you will need to ship and install them manually.
