使用Spark 1.6.1。我在mariaDb中有一堆表，我希望转换为pySpark DataFrame对象。但是createExternalTable（）正在抛出。例如：
In [292]: tn = sql.tableNames()[10]
In [293]: df = sql.createExternalTable(tn)
/home/charles/spark-1.6.1/python/lib/py4j-0.9-src.zip/py4j/protocol.py in get_return_value(answer, gateway_client, target_id, name)
306 raise Py4JJavaError(
307 "An error occurred while calling {0}{1}{2}.\n".
--> 308 format(target_id, ".", name), value)
309 else:
310 raise Py4JError(
Py4JJavaError: An error occurred while calling o18.createExternalTable.
: java.lang.RuntimeException: Tables created with SQLContext must be TEMPORARY. Use a HiveContext instead.

如果我指定source ='jdbc'，也会发生同样的事情。
该表存在：
In [297]: sql.sql("SELECT * from {} LIMIT 5".format(tn)).show()

根据错误，这应该适用于HIVE数据。我没有使用HIVEContext，而是使用SQLContext。根据{{3}}，这支持ver＆gt; = 1.3。
有没有办法从SqlTable中提取DataFrame？
答案 0 :(得分：1)
给出描述你想要的是createExternalTable用于管理Hive表而不是简单的表：
df = sqlContext.table(tn)
或分配sql来电的结果：
df = sqlContext.sql("SELECT * from {}".format(tn))
