Zeppelin, Spark, PySpark Setup on Windows (10)

I wish running Zeppelin on windows wasn't as hard as it is. Things go haiwire if you already have Spark installed on your computer. Zeppelin's embedded Spark interpreter does not work nicely with existing Spark and you may need to perform below steps (hacks!) to make it work. I am hoping that these will be fixed in newer Zeppelin versions.

If you try to run Zeppelin after extracting the package, you might encounter "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."

Google search landed me to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-1584, this link was helpful but wasn't enough to get Zeppelin working.

Below is what I had to do to make it work on my Windows 10 computer.

Free O'Reilly books and convenient script to just download them.

Thanks /u/FallenAege/ and /u/ShPavel/ from this Reddit post

How to use:

1. Take the download.sh file and put it into a directory where you want the files to be saved.
2. cd into the directory and make sure that it has executable permissions (chmod +x download.sh should do it)
3. Run ./download.sh and wee there it goes. Also if you do not want all the files, just simply comment the ones you do not want.
