> Stop fetching source before a cancel with savepoint
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-7883
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7883
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: DataStream API, Kafka Connector, State Backends,
> Checkpointing
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.3.2
> Reporter: Antoine Philippot
>
> For a cancel with savepoint command, the JobManager trigger the cancel call
> once the savepoint is finished, but during the savepoint execution, kafka
> source continue to poll new messages which will not be part of the savepoint
> and will be replayed on the next application start.
> A solution could be to stop fetching the source stream task before triggering
> the savepoint.
> I suggest to add an interface {{StoppableFetchingSourceFunction}} with a
> method {{stopFetching}} that existant SourceFunction implementations could
> implement.
> We can add a {{stopFetchingSource}} property in
> {{CheckpointOptions}} class to pass the desired behaviour from
> {{JobManager.handleMessage(CancelJobWithSavepoint)}} to
> {{SourceStreamTask.triggerCheckpoint}}
