Robert Metzger created FLINK-1964: ------------------------------------- Summary: Rework TwitterSource to use a Properties object instead of a file path Key: FLINK-1964 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1964 Project: Flink Issue Type: Bug Components: Streaming Affects Versions: 0.9 Reporter: Robert Metzger Priority: Minor
The twitter connector is very hard to use on a cluster because it expects the property file to be present on all nodes. It would be much easier to ask the user to pass a Properties object immediately. Also, the javadoc of the class stops in the middle of the sentence. It was not obvious to me how the two examples TwitterStreaming and TwitterTopology differ. Also, there is a third TwitterStream example in the streaming examples. The documentation of the Twitter source refers to the non existent TwitterLocal class. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
