Download data from a SparkDataFrame into a R data.frame

This function downloads the contents of a SparkDataFrame into an R's data.frame. Since data.frames are held in memory, ensure that you have enough memory in your system to accommodate the contents.

Usage

as.data.frame(x, row.names = NULL, optional = FALSE, ...)

# S4 method for SparkDataFrame
as.data.frame(x, row.names = NULL, optional = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x: a SparkDataFrame.
row.names: NULL or a character vector giving the row names for the data frame.
optional: If TRUE, converting column names is optional.
...: additional arguments to pass to base::as.data.frame.

Value

A data.frame.

Note

as.data.frame since 1.6.0
