from pyspark import SparkConf, SparkContext
from pyspark.streaming import StreamingContext
from pyspark.streaming.kafka import KafkaUtils
import pprint

conf= SparkConf().setAppName(“streaming test”).setMaster(“yarn-client”)
sc=SparkContext(conf=conf)
ssc=StreamingContext(sc,10)

topic = “newone”
broker = {“metadata.broker.list”: “URL”}

Output Operations on DStreams

print() - Prints the first ten elements of every batch of data in a DStream on the driver node running the streaming application. This is useful for development and debugging. Python API This is called pprint() in the Python API.

java.util.Hashmap is coming in the message i.e. InputDStream[ConsumerRecord[K, V]] you want to print that, while and hence java.lang.ClassCastException

you have to parse the message and print it like this...

 direct.transform(...).map(lambda ...)

examples here :tests.py
