Spark.es.nodes config setting in Spark not getting picked up

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Using Spark 1.6 with pyspark and TargetHolding/pyspark-elastic 0.4.2 and can't figure out how to tell it which ES node to use. The docs for pyspark-elastic say to set --conf spark.es.nodes=<nodes> but for some reason it's still using localhost. Here is my command line for launching pyspark:

/usr/bin/pyspark --packages TargetHolding/pyspark-elastic:0.4.2 --conf spark.es.nodes="172.22.6.41" --conf spark.es.nodes.discovery=false --master yarn-client

Here is the error I'm getting the logs. As you can see it's trying to connect to localhost:9200

You mentioned this is for the TargetHolding/pyspark-elastic which isn't really affiliated with es-hadoop proper. It also seems that you've already opened an issue with the project (Just linking it for completeness). I noticed that it's a fairly young project, but good luck with tracking down a resolution!
