Examples

library(sparklyr) 
sc <- spark_connect(master = "local", version = "2.3", packages = "kafka") 
read_options <- list(kafka.bootstrap.servers = "localhost:9092", subscribe = "topic1") 
write_options <- list(kafka.bootstrap.servers = "localhost:9092", topic = "topic2") 
stream <- stream_read_kafka(sc, options = read_options) %>% 
  stream_write_kafka(options = write_options) 
stream_stop(stream)
