# Spark Monitor - An extension for Jupyter Lab

This project was originally written by krishnan-r as a Google Summer of Code project for Jupyter Notebook. [Check his website out here.](https://krishnan-r.github.io/sparkmonitor/)

As a part of my internship as a Software Engineer at Yelp, I created this fork to update the extension to be compatible with JupyterLab - Yelp's choice for sharing and collaborating on notebooks.

## About


+

=

SparkMonitor is an extension for Jupyter Lab that enables the live monitoring of Apache Spark Jobs spawned from a notebook. The extension provides several features to monitor and debug a Spark job from within the notebook interface itself.

### Requirements

- At least JupyterLab 3
- pyspark 3.X.X or newer (For compatibility with older pyspark versions, use jupyterlab-sparkmonitor 3.X)

## Features

- Automatically displays a live monitoring tool below cells that run Spark jobs in a Jupyter notebook
- A table of jobs and stages with progressbars
- A timeline which shows jobs, stages, and tasks
- A graph showing number of active tasks & executor cores vs time
- A notebook server extension that proxies the Spark UI and displays it in an iframe popup for more details
- For a detailed list of features see the use case [notebooks](https://krishnan-r.github.io/sparkmonitor/#common-use-cases-and-tests)
- Support for multiple SparkSessions (default port is 4040)
- [How it Works](https://krishnan-r.github.io/sparkmonitor/how.html)





## Quick Start

### To do a quick test of the extension

This docker image has pyspark and several other related packages installed alongside the sparkmonitor extension.

```bash
docker run -it -p 8888:8888 itsjafer/sparkmonitor
```

### Setting up the extension

```bash
pip install jupyterlab-sparkmonitor # install the extension

# set up ipython profile and add our kernel extension to it
ipython profile create --ipython-dir=.ipython
echo "c.InteractiveShellApp.extensions.append('sparkmonitor.kernelextension')" >> .ipython/profile_default/ipython_config.py

# run jupyter lab
IPYTHONDIR=.ipython jupyter lab --watch
```

With the extension installed, a SparkConf object called `conf` will be usable from your notebooks. You can use it as follows:

```python
from pyspark import SparkContext

# start the spark context using the SparkConf the extension inserted
sc=SparkContext.getOrCreate(conf=conf) #Start the spark context

# Monitor should spawn under the cell with 4 jobs
sc.parallelize(range(0,100)).count()
sc.parallelize(range(0,100)).count()
sc.parallelize(range(0,100)).count()
sc.parallelize(range(0,100)).count()
```

If you already have your own spark configuration, you will need to set `spark.extraListeners` to `sparkmonitor.listener.JupyterSparkMonitorListener` and `spark.driver.extraClassPath` to the path to the sparkmonitor python package `path/to/package/sparkmonitor/listener.jar`

```python
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession
spark = SparkSession.builder\
.config('spark.extraListeners', 'sparkmonitor.listener.JupyterSparkMonitorListener')\
.config('spark.driver.extraClassPath', 'venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/sparkmonitor/listener.jar')\
.getOrCreate()

# should spawn 4 jobs in a monitor bnelow the cell
spark.sparkContext.parallelize(range(0,100)).count()
spark.sparkContext.parallelize(range(0,100)).count()
spark.sparkContext.parallelize(range(0,100)).count()
spark.sparkContext.parallelize(range(0,100)).count()
```

## Changelog

* 1.0 - Initial Release
* 2.0 - Migration to JupyterLab 2, Multiple Spark Sessions, and displaying monitors beneath the correct cell more accurately
* 3.0 - Migrate to JupyterLab 3 as prebuilt extension
* 4.0 - pyspark 3.X Compatibility; no longer compatible with PySpark 2.X or under

## Development

If you'd like to develop the extension:

```bash
make all # Clean the directory, build the extension, and run it locally
```
