Use Azure Toolkit for IntelliJ to create Apache Spark applications for HDInsight cluster

This article demonstrates how to develop Apache Spark applications on Azure HDInsight using the Azure Toolkit plug-in for the IntelliJ IDE. Azure HDInsight is a managed, open-source analytics service in the cloud. The service allows you to use open-source frameworks like Hadoop, Apache Spark, Apache Hive, and Apache Kafka.

You can use the Azure Toolkit plug-in in a few ways:

  • Develop and submit a Scala Spark application to an HDInsight Spark cluster.
  • Access your Azure HDInsight Spark cluster resources.
  • Develop and run a Scala Spark application locally.

In this article, you learn how to:

  • Use the Azure Toolkit for IntelliJ plug-in
  • Develop Apache Spark applications
  • Submit an application to Azure HDInsight cluster

Prerequisites

Install Scala plugin for IntelliJ IDEA

Steps to install the Scala plugin:

  1. Open IntelliJ IDEA.

  2. On the welcome screen, navigate to Configure > Plugins to open the Plugins window.

    IntelliJ IDEA enables scala plugin.

  3. Select Install for the Scala plugin that is featured in the new window.

    IntelliJ IDEA installs scala plugin.

  4. After the plugin installs successfully, you must restart the IDE.

Create a Spark Scala application for an HDInsight Spark cluster

  1. Start IntelliJ IDEA, and select Create New Project to open the New Project window.

  2. Select Azure Spark/HDInsight from the left pane.

  3. Select Spark Project (Scala) from the main window.

  4. From the Build tool drop-down list, select one of the following options:

    • Maven for Scala project-creation wizard support.

    • SBT for managing the dependencies and building for the Scala project.

      IntelliJ IDEA New Project dialog box.

  5. Select Next.

  6. In the New Project window, provide the following information:

    Property Description
    Project name Enter a name. This article uses myApp.
    Project location Enter the location to save your project.
    Project SDK This field might be blank on your first use of IDEA. Select New... and navigate to your JDK.
    Spark Version The creation wizard integrates the proper version for Spark SDK and Scala SDK. If the Spark cluster version is earlier than 2.0, select Spark 1.x. Otherwise, select Spark2.x. This example uses Spark 2.3.0 (Scala 2.11.8).

    Selecting the Apache Spark SDK.

  7. Select Finish. It may take a few minutes before the project becomes available.

  8. The Spark project automatically creates an artifact for you. To view the artifact, do the following steps:

    a. From the menu bar, navigate to File > Project Structure....

    b. From the Project Structure window, select Artifacts.

    c. Select Cancel after viewing the artifact.

    Artifact info in the dialog box.

  9. Add your application source code by doing the following steps:

    a. From Project, navigate to myApp > src > main > scala.

    b. Right-click scala, and then navigate to New > Scala Class.

    Commands for creating a Scala class from Project.

    c. In the Create New Scala Class dialog box, provide a name, select Object in the Kind drop-down list, and then select OK.

    Create New Scala Class dialog box.

    d. The myApp.scala file then opens in the main view. Replace the default code with the code found below:

    import org.apache.spark.SparkConf
    import org.apache.spark.SparkContext
    
    object myApp{
        def main (arg: Array[String]): Unit = {
        val conf = new SparkConf().setAppName("myApp")
        val sc = new SparkContext(conf)
    
        val rdd = sc.textFile("wasbs:///HdiSamples/HdiSamples/SensorSampleData/hvac/HVAC.csv")
    
        //find the rows that have only one digit in the seventh column in the CSV file
        val rdd1 =  rdd.filter(s => s.split(",")(6).length() == 1)
    
        rdd1.saveAsTextFile("wasbs:///HVACOut")
        }
    
    }
    

    The code reads the data from HVAC.csv (available on all HDInsight Spark clusters), retrieves the rows that have only one digit in the seventh column in the CSV file, and writes the output to /HVACOut under the default storage container for the cluster.
