JJ commented on BEAM-7379:
--------------------------
I ran into the issue of the missing `gradlew` when a beam dev was nearby. From
what I understand the documentation has been updated before the changes have
been released.
> Flink runner build instructions need updating
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: BEAM-7379
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-7379
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: website
> Reporter: Chad Dombrova
> Priority: Major
>
> Hi,
> I'm new to the project and trying to follow the instructions on
> [https://beam.apache.org/documentation/runners/flink/] for the portable flink
> runner, but they are out of date. I'd love to see the docs updated so that
> users like myself can do this successfully.
> The first issue is that all of the source releases that I downloaded, from
> both github and the downloads page, had the gradlew file removed. I had to
> clone the repo to solve this problem.
> The next problem that I encountered was this:
> {code:java}
> chad$ ./gradlew :sdks:python:container:docker
> Configuration on demand is an incubating feature.
> FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
> * What went wrong:
> Project 'sdks' not found in root project 'beam'.
> {code}
>
> The proper command is:
> {code:java}
> ./gradlew :beam-sdks-python-container:docker{code}
>
> Likewise, the next command should be:
> {code:java}
> ./gradlew :beam-runners-flink-1.7-job-server:runShadow
> -PflinkMasterUrl=localhost:8081{code}
>
> After that I was able to get the flink beam example working. I recommend
> adding this to the docs:
> {code:java}
> (.venv) chad$ python -m
> apache_beam.examples.flink.flink_streaming_impulse{code}
>
> also, since the docs specify only flink 1.7 is compatible with beam 2.12 (the
> latest as of this writing), I had to do a little extra work to get flink 1.7
> built instead of 1.8, but this is probably outside the scope of the beam docs:
> {code:java}
> brew install
> https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/97b7a467beb81412bef2fbc497671c8ad3d407e5/Formula/apache-flink.rb
> /usr/local/Cellar/apache-flink/1.7.2/libexec/bin/start-cluster.sh{code}
> thanks!
