## Read a Parquet file into a Spark DataFrame

### Description

Read a Parquet file into a Spark DataFrame.

### Usage

    spark_read_parquet(sc, name, path, options = list(), repartition = 0,
      memory = TRUE, overwrite = TRUE)

### Arguments

`sc` | A `spark_connection`.
`name` | The name to assign to the newly generated table.
`path` | The path to the file. Needs to be accessible from the cluster. Supports the "hdfs://", "s3n://" and "file://" protocols.
`options` | A list of strings with additional options. See http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-programming-guide.html#configuration.
`repartition` | The number of partitions used to distribute the generated table. Use 0 (the default) to avoid partitioning.
`memory` | Boolean; should the data be loaded eagerly into memory? (That is, should the table be cached?)
`overwrite` | Boolean; overwrite the table with the given name if it already exists?

### Details

You can read data from HDFS (`hdfs://`), S3 (`s3n://`), as well as the local file system (`file://`).

If you are reading from a secure S3 bucket be sure that the `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` environment variables are both defined.
