Mohit, This doesn't seems to be working can you please provide more details? when I use "from pyspark import SparkContext" it is disabled in pycharm. I use pycharm community edition. Where should I set the environment variables in same python script or different python script?

Also, should I run any Spark local cluster so Spark program runs on top of that?

Appreciate your help

My naive set up.. 

Adding 

os.environ['SPARK_HOME'] = "/path/to/spark"

sys.path.append("/path/to/spark/python")

on top of my script.

from pyspark import SparkContext

from pyspark import SparkConf

Execution works from within pycharm...

Though my next step is to figure out autocompletion and I bet there are better ways to develop apps for spark..
