RDD

The keys RDD

Since data access in Redis is based on keys, to use Spark-Redis you'll first need a keys RDD. The following example shows how to read key names from Redis into an RDD:

import com.redislabs.provider.redis._

val keysRDD = sc.fromRedisKeyPattern("foo*", 5)
val keysRDD = sc.fromRedisKeys(Array("foo", "bar"), 5)

The above example populates the keys RDD by retrieving the key names from Redis that match the given pattern (foo*) or the keys can be listed by an Array. Furthermore, it overrides the default setting of 3 partitions in the RDD with a new value of 5 - each partition consists of a set of Redis cluster hashslots contain the matched key names.

Reading data

Each of Redis' data types can be read into an RDD. The following snippet demonstrates reading from Redis Strings.

Strings

import com.redislabs.provider.redis._
val stringRDD = sc.fromRedisKV("keyPattern*")
val stringRDD = sc.fromRedisKV(Array("foo", "bar"))

Once run, stringRDD: RDD[(String, String)] will contain the string values of all keys whose names are provided by keyPattern or Array[String].

Hashes

val hashRDD = sc.fromRedisHash("keyPattern*")
val hashRDD = sc.fromRedisHash(Array("foo", "bar"))

This will populate hashRDD: RDD[(String, String)] with the fields and values of the Redis Hashes, the hashes' names are provided by keyPattern or Array[String].

Lists

val listRDD = sc.fromRedisList("keyPattern*")
val listRDD = sc.fromRedisList(Array("foo", "bar"))

The contents (members) of the Redis Lists in whose names are provided by keyPattern or Array[String] will be stored in listRDD: RDD[String].

Sets

val setRDD = sc.fromRedisSet("keyPattern*")
val setRDD = sc.fromRedisSet(Array("foo", "bar"))

The Redis Sets' members will be written to setRDD: RDD[String].

Sorted Sets

val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZSetWithScore("keyPattern*")
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZSetWithScore(Array("foo", "bar"))

Using fromRedisZSetWithScore will store in zsetRDD: RDD[(String, Double)] an RDD that consists of members and their scores, from the Redis Sorted Sets whose keys are provided by keyPattern or Array[String].

val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZSet("keyPattern*")
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZSet(Array("foo", "bar"))

Using fromRedisZSet will store in zsetRDD: RDD[String], an RDD that consists of members from the Redis Sorted Sets whose keys are provided by keyPattern or Array[String].

val startPos: Int = _
val endPos: Int = _
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZRangeWithScore("keyPattern*", startPos, endPos)
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZRangeWithScore(Array("foo", "bar"), startPos, endPos)

Using fromRedisZRangeWithScore will store in zsetRDD: RDD[(String, Double)], an RDD that consists of members and the members' ranges are within [startPos, endPos] of its own Sorted Set from the Redis Sorted Sets whose keys are provided by keyPattern or Array[String].

val startPos: Int = _
val endPos: Int = _
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZRange("keyPattern*", startPos, endPos)
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZRange(Array("foo", "bar"), startPos, endPos)

Using fromRedisZSet will store in zsetRDD: RDD[String], an RDD that consists of members and the members' ranges are within [startPos, endPos] of its own Sorted Set from the Redis Sorted Sets whose keys are provided by keyPattern or Array[String].

val min: Double = _
val max: Double = _
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZRangeByScoreWithScore("keyPattern*", min, max)
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZRangeByScoreWithScore(Array("foo", "bar"), min, max)

Using fromRedisZRangeByScoreWithScore will store in zsetRDD: RDD[(String, Double)], an RDD that consists of members and the members' scores are within [min, max] from the Redis Sorted Sets whose keys are provided by keyPattern or Array[String].

val min: Double = _
val max: Double = _
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZRangeByScore("keyPattern*", min, max)
val zsetRDD = sc.fromRedisZRangeByScore(Array("foo", "bar"), min, max)

Using fromRedisZSet will store in zsetRDD: RDD[String], an RDD that consists of members and the members' scores are within [min, max] from the Redis Sorted Sets whose keys are provided by keyPattern or Array[String].

Writing data

To write data to Redis from Spark, you'll need to prepare the appropriate RDD depending on the type of data you want to write.

Strings

For String values, your RDD should consist of the key-value pairs that are to be written. Assuming that the strings RDD is called stringRDD, use the following snippet for writing it to Redis:

sc.toRedisKV(stringRDD)

In order to set an expiry on the key, we can pass in the ttl (in seconds) as an additional argument:

sc.toRedisKV(stringRDD, ttl)

By default, Strings won't have any expiry set.

Hashes

To store a Redis Hash, the RDD should consist of its field-value pairs. If the RDD is called hashRDD, the following should be used for storing it in the key name specified by hashName:

sc.toRedisHASH(hashRDD, hashName)

In order to set an expiry on the key, we can pass in the ttl (in seconds) as an additional argument:

sc.toRedisHASH(hashRDD, hashName, ttl)

By default, Hashes won't have any expiry set.

Lists

Use the following to store an RDD in a Redis List:

sc.toRedisLIST(listRDD, listName)

Use the following to store an RDD in a fixed-size Redis List:

sc.toRedisFixedLIST(listRDD, listName, listSize)

The listRDD is an RDD that contains all of the list's string elements in order, and listName is the list's key name. listSize is an integer which specifies the size of the Redis list; it is optional, and will default to an unlimited size.

Use the following to store an RDD in multiple Redis Lists:

sc.toRedisLISTs(rdd)

The rdd is an RDD of tuples (list name, list values)

Use the following to store an RDD of binary values in multiple Redis Lists:

sc.toRedisByteLISTs(byteListRDD)

The byteListRDD is an RDD of tuples (list name, list values) represented as byte arrays.

Expiry can be set on Lists by passing in an additional argument called ttl (in seconds) to the above methods except toRedisFixedLIST:

sc.toRedisLIST(listRDD, listName, ttl)
sc.toRedisLISTs(rdd, ttl)
sc.toRedisByteLISTs(byteListRDD, ttl)

By default, Lists won't have any expiry set.

Sets

For storing data in a Redis Set, use toRedisSET as follows:

sc.toRedisSET(setRDD, setName)

Where setRDD is an RDD with the set's string elements and setName is the name of the key for that set.

In order to set an expiry on the key, we can pass in the ttl (in seconds) as an additional argument:

sc.toRedisSET(setRDD, setName, ttl)

By default, Sets won't have any expiry set.

Sorted Sets

sc.toRedisZSET(zsetRDD, zsetName)

The above example demonstrates storing data in Redis in a Sorted Set. The zsetRDD in the example should contain pairs of members and their scores, whereas zsetName is the name for that key.

In order to set an expiry on the key, we can pass in the ttl (in seconds) as an additional argument:

sc.toRedisZSET(zsetRDD, zsetName, ttl)

By default, Sorted Sets won't have any expiry set.

Read and write configuration options

Some configuration options can be overridden for a particular RDD:

val readWriteConf = ReadWriteConfig(scanCount = 1000, maxPipelineSize = 1000)
val rdd = sc.fromRedisKeyPattern(keyPattern)(readWriteConfig = readWriteConf)

or with an implicit parameter:

implicit val readWriteConf = ReadWriteConfig(scanCount = 1000, maxPipelineSize = 1000)
val rdd = sc.fromRedisKeyPattern(keyPattern)
