Apache Spark logging within Scala

You can use Akhil’s solution proposed in
https://www.mail-archive.com/user@spark.apache.org/msg29010.html.
I have used by myself and it works.

Try this way:

object Holder extends Serializable {      
   @transient lazy val log = Logger.getLogger(getClass.getName)    
}


val someRdd = spark.parallelize(List(1, 2, 3)).foreach { element =>
   Holder.log.info(element)
}
