Spark Scala GroupBy column and sum values

I am a newbie in Apache-spark and recently started coding in Scala.

I have a RDD with 4 columns that looks like this: (Columns 1 - name, 2- title, 3- views, 4 - size)

aa    File:Sleeping_lion.jpg 1 8030
aa    Main_Page              1 78261
aa    Special:Statistics     1 20493
aa.b  User:5.34.97.97        1 4749
aa.b  User:80.63.79.2        1 4751
af    Blowback               2 16896
af    Bluff                  2 21442
en    Huntingtown,_Maryland  1 0

I want to group based on Column Name and get the sum of Column views.

It should be like this:

aa   3
aa.b 2
af   2
en   1

I have tried to use groupByKey and reduceByKey but I am stuck and unable to proceed further.

I assume that you have already have your RDD populated.

   //For simplicity, I build RDD this way
      val data = Seq(("aa", "File:Sleeping_lion.jpg", 1, 8030),
          ("aa", "Main_Page", 1, 78261),
          ("aa", "Special:Statistics", 1, 20493),
          ("aa.b", "User:5.34.97.97", 1, 4749),
          ("aa.b", "User:80.63.79.2", 1, 4751),
          ("af", "Blowback", 2, 16896),
          ("af", "Bluff", 2, 21442),
          ("en", "Huntingtown,_Maryland", 1, 0))

Dataframe approach 

  val sql = new SQLContext(sc)        
  import sql.implicits._
  import org.apache.spark.sql.functions._

  val df = data.toDF("name", "title", "views", "size")      
  df.groupBy($"name").agg(count($"name") as "") show

**Result** 
+----+-----+
|name|count|    
+----+-----+    
|  aa|    3|    
|  af|    2|   
|aa.b|    2|    
|  en|    1|    
+----+-----+

RDD Approach (CountByKey(...))

rdd.keyBy(f => f._1).countByKey().foreach(println(_))

RDD Approach (reduceByKey(...))

rdd.map(f => (f._1, 1)).reduceByKey((accum, curr) => accum + curr).foreach(println(_))

If any of this does not solve your problem, pls share where exactely you have strucked.

This should work, you read the text file, split each line by the separator, map to key value with the appropiate fileds and use countByKey:

sc.textFile("path to the text file")
 .map(x => x.split(" ",-1))
 .map(x => (x(0),x(3)))
 .countByKey

To complete my answer you can approach the problem using dataframe api ( if this is possible for you depending on spark version), example:

val result = df.groupBy("column to Group on").agg(count("column to count on"))

another possibility is to use the sql approach:

val df = spark.read.csv("csv path")
df.createOrReplaceTempView("temp_table")
val result = sqlContext.sql("select <col to Group on> , count(col to count on) from temp_table Group by <col to Group on>")
