How to show full column content in a Spark Dataframe?

Question

I am using spark-csv to load data into a DataFrame. I want to do a simple query and display the content:

val df = sqlContext.read.format("com.databricks.spark.csv").option("header", "true").load("my.csv")
df.registerTempTable("tasks")
results = sqlContext.sql("select col from tasks");
results.show()

The col seems truncated:

scala> results.show();
+--------------------+
|                 col|
+--------------------+

How do I show the full content of the column?

Answer 1

results.show(20, false) will not truncate. Check the source

20 is the default number of rows displayed when show() is called without any arguments.
