Write to Hbase from Spark

I am able to Read in Hbase from Spark, but I am not able to write rows in Hbase from Spark.
I am on Cloudera 5.0 (Spark 1.1.0 and HBase 0.98.6) . So Far this is what I got.

I have a RDD localData, how can save that to Hbase, how can I use saveAsHadoopDataset?
import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.

{HBaseConfiguration, HTableDescriptor}

import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce.TableInputFormat
import org.apache.spark.rdd.NewHadoopRDD
import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.io.ImmutableBytesWritable
import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Result
import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapred.TableOutputFormat
import org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobConf
//Create RDD
val localData = sc.textFile("/home/hbase_example/antiwari/scala_code/resources/scala_load_file.txt")
val conf = HBaseConfiguration.create()
conf.set("hbase.zookeeper.quorum", "localhost")
conf.set("hbase.zookeeper.property.clientPort","2181")
val jobConfig: JobConf = new JobConf(conf, this.getClass)
jobConfig.setOutputFormat(classOf[TableOutputFormat])
jobConfig.set(TableOutputFormat.OUTPUT_TABLE, "spark_data")
/*Contents of scala_load_file.txt

I looked at many examples online including (http://www.cloudera.com/content/cloudera/en/documentation/core/latest/topics/admin_hbase_import.html... , i get the following error (may be because I am on spark 1.1.0 and this example is old)

scala> def convert(triple: (Int, String, String)) =

{ | val p = new Put(Bytes.toBytes(triple._1)) | p.add(Bytes.toBytes("cf"), | Bytes.toBytes("col_1"), Bytes.toBytes(triple._2)) | p.add(Bytes.toBytes("cf"), | Bytes.toBytes("col_2"), Bytes.toBytes(triple._3)) | (new ImmutableBytesWritable, p) | }

<console>:18: error: not found: type Put
val p = new Put(Bytes.toBytes(triple._1))
