module not found: graphframes#graphframes;0.5.0-spark2.1-s_2.11

[lgeistlinger]

Hi,

I am trying to follow the instructions under https://spark.rstudio.com/graphframes/ for running graphframes with spark version 2.1.0.
However, I am facing a similar issue as has been described before in #7.

That means after:

sparklyr::spark_install(version = "2.1.0")

I can connect to spark in a fresh R session via:

library(sparklyr)
sc <- spark_connect(master = "local", version = "2.1.0")

However, when also loading graphframes, I would run into the following error:

> library(sparklyr)
> library(graphframes)
> sc <- spark_connect(master = "local", version = "2.1.0", config = conf)

Error in spark_connect_gateway(gatewayAddress, gatewayPort, sessionId,  : 
  Gateway in localhost:8880 did not respond.

I have tried using a more recent version of spark (2.4.3) as well as putting the apparently missing graphframes jars directly into the jars directory without success.

Any advice on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

[lgeistlinger]

The problem seems to be that the default repos (https://repo1.maven.org and http://dl.bintray.com), that sparklyr tries to install graphframes from, do not host the graphframes jars anymore.

This can be fixed that by adding "https://repos.spark-packages.org" to the list of repositories as done here.

Also the code can be updated to pull the latest version of graphframes (v0.8.1, Sep 2020), which works with Spark version 2.4 and higher, as done here.

I can provide a pull request if it seems worth incorporating these updates.
