Running spark package in R isn't working, how do I call a spark package into R?

Question

I'm trying to implement the fp-growth algorithm in R through sparklyr.

I've installed the sparklyr package and called the library sparklyr which works, but when I call the library ml_fpgrowth it's not working.

The warning message says its not available for my version of R but I believe that's the latest R version.

How else can I install that ml_fpgrowth package?

ml_fpgrowth() is a function, not a package.

See documentation here.

Just install sparklyr like you do, and then:

library(sparklyr)
library(installr)

(There is no need to load the functions into R, just the packages)

After you can run your command line (fpm <- ...)

I get the error: "could not find function :ml_fpgrowth" – Piper Ramirez Apr 05 '19 at 15:35
What appears when you lunch this: `library(sparklyr)` ? – Pierre-louis Stenger Apr 08 '19 at 12:22
