Spark Python template

The Spark Python template image serves as a base image to build your own Python application to run on a Spark cluster. See big-data-europe/docker-spark README for a description how to setup a Spark cluster.

Package your application using pip

You can build and launch your Python application on a Spark cluster by extending this image with your sources. The template uses pip to manage the dependencies of your project, so make sure you have a requirements.txt file in the root of your application specifying all the dependencies.

Extending the Spark Python template with your application

Steps to extend the Spark Python template

  1. Create a Dockerfile in the root folder of your project (which also contains a requirements.txt)
  2. Extend the Spark Python template Docker image
  3. Configure the following environment variables (unless the default value satisfies):
  • SPARK_MASTER_NAME (default: spark-master)
  • SPARK_MASTER_PORT (default: 7077)
  • SPARK_APPLICATION_PYTHON_LOCATION (default: /app/app.py)
  • SPARK_APPLICATION_ARGS
  1. Build and run the image
docker build --rm -t bde/spark-app .
docker run --name my-spark-app -e ENABLE_INIT_DAEMON=false --link spark-master:spark-master -d bde/spark-app

The sources in the project folder will be automatically added to /app if you directly extend the Spark Python template image. Otherwise you will have to add the sources by yourself in your Dockerfile with the command:

COPY . /app

If you overwrite the template's CMD in your Dockerfile, make sure to execute the /template.sh script at the end.

Example Dockerfile

FROM bde2020/spark-python-template:2.4.0-hadoop2.7

MAINTAINER You <[email protected]>

ENV SPARK_APPLICATION_PYTHON_LOCATION /app/entrypoint.py
ENV SPARK_APPLICATION_ARGS "foo bar baz"
