[geomesa-users] Shapefile ingestion

[Diethard Steiner <diethard.steiner@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am trying to follow the Spark Jupyter tutorial and I am struggling a bit with the Shapefile import. The docu shows a very basic example of how to ingest a shapefile, referencing directly the `shp` and not any other required files of the shapefile bundle. Is the `shp` file actually the only one that will be imported? No attributes from the dbf file etc?

I tried the following but I get an out of bound exception:

# create feature/schema
geomesa create-schema \
    -u root \
    -c myNamespace.countries \
    -f countriesFeature \
    -s shape:Polygon,fips:String,iso2:String,iso3:String,un:Integer,name:String,area:String,pop2005:Double,region:Integer,subregion:Integer,lon:Float,lat:Float

# ingest data
geomesa ingest -u root -p password \
  -c myNamespace.countries -f shapeFile countriesFeature TM_WORLD_BORDERS_SIMPL-0.3.shp

Can you please clarify how to correctly import this file?

Thanks,

Diethard
