Till Rohrmann created FLINK-2161: ------------------------------------ Summary: Flink Scala Shell does not support external jars (e.g. Gelly, FlinkML) Key: FLINK-2161 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2161 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Till Rohrmann
Currently, there is no easy way to load and ship external libraries/jars with Flink's Scala shell. Assume that you want to run some Gelly graph algorithms from within the Scala shell, then you have to put the Gelly jar manually in the lib directory and make sure that this jar is also available on your cluster, because it is not shipped with the user code. It would be good to have a simple mechanism how to specify additional jars upon startup of the Scala shell. These jars should then also be shipped to the cluster. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
