如何在控制台中创建多个 SparkContext

Question

我想在控制台中创建多个 SparkContext。根据mailing list中的一个post，我需要做SparkConf.set( 'spark.driver.allowMultipleContexts' , true)，看似合理，但行不通。任何人都可以有这方面的经验吗？非常感谢：

下面是我做的和错误信息，我在 Ipython 笔记本上做的：

from pyspark import SparkConf, SparkContext
conf = SparkConf().setMaster("spark://10.21.208.21:7077").set("spark.driver.allowMultipleContexts", "true")
conf.getAll()
[(u'spark.eventLog.enabled', u'true'),
 (u'spark.driver.allowMultipleContexts', u'true'),
 (u'spark.driver.host', u'10.20.70.80'),
 (u'spark.app.name', u'pyspark-shell'),
 (u'spark.eventLog.dir', u'hdfs://10.21.208.21:8020/sparklog'),
 (u'spark.master', u'spark://10.21.208.21:7077')]

sc1 = SparkContext(conf=conf.setAppName("app 1")) ## this sc success
sc1
<pyspark.context.SparkContext at 0x1b7cf10>

sc2 = SparkContext(conf=conf.setAppName("app 2")) ## this failed

Answer 1

这是在添加 spark.driver.allowMultipleContexts 配置之前存在的特定于 PySpark 的限制（与 JVM 中的多个 SparkContext 对象相关）。 PySpark 不允许多个活动的 SparkContext，因为其实现的各个部分假定某些组件具有全局共享状态。

Answer 2

我希望通过调用 close() stop() 停止并关闭之前的 spark 上下文，然后重新创建新的 spark 上下文，但仍然出现相同的错误。

Answer 3

我的方式：

from pyspark import SparkContext
try:
    sc.stop()
except:
    pass
sc=SparkContext('local','pyspark')
'''
your code
'''
sc.stop()

Answer 4

运行创建新上下文之前的波纹管函数

def kill_current_spark_context():
    SparkContext.getOrCreate().stop()
