Spark uses Hadoop client libraries for HDFS and YARN. Starting in version Spark 1.4, the project packages "Hadoop free" builds that lets you more easily connect a single Spark binary to any Hadoop version. To use these builds, you need to modify SPARK_DIST_CLASSPATH to include Hadoop's package jars. The most convenient place to do this is by adding an entry in conf/spark-env.sh.

This page describes how to connect Spark to Hadoop for different types of distributions.

Apache Hadoop

For Apache distributions, you can use Hadoop's 'classpath' command. For instance:

{% highlight bash %}

in conf/spark-env.sh

If 'hadoop' binary is on your PATH

export SPARK_DIST_CLASSPATH=$(hadoop classpath)

With explicit path to 'hadoop' binary

export SPARK_DIST_CLASSPATH=$(/path/to/hadoop/bin/hadoop classpath)

Passing a Hadoop configuration directory

export SPARK_DIST_CLASSPATH=$(hadoop --config /path/to/configs classpath)

{% endhighlight %}
