Chad Dombrova created BEAM-8402: ----------------------------------- Summary: Create a class hierarchy to represent environments Key: BEAM-8402 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-8402 Project: Beam Issue Type: New Feature Components: sdk-py-core Reporter: Chad Dombrova Assignee: Chad Dombrova
As a first step towards making it possible to assign different environments to sections of a pipeline, we first need to expose environment classes to the pipeline API. Unlike PTransforms, PCollections, Coders, and Windowings, environments exists solely in the portability framework as protobuf objects. By creating a hierarchy of "native" classes that represent the various environment types -- external, docker, process, etc -- users will be able to instantiate these and assign them to parts of the pipeline. The assignment portion will be covered in a follow-up issue/PR. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
