> Create unified interfaces to configure and instatiate TableSources
> ------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: FLINK-8240
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8240
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Table API & SQL
> Reporter: Timo Walther
> Assignee: Timo Walther
> Priority: Major
>
> At the moment every table source has different ways for configuration and
> instantiation. Some table source are tailored to a specific encoding (e.g.,
> {{KafkaAvroTableSource}}, {{KafkaJsonTableSource}}) or only support one
> encoding for reading (e.g., {{CsvTableSource}}). Each of them might implement
> a builder or support table source converters for external catalogs.
> The table sources should have a unified interface for discovery, defining
> common properties, and instantiation. The {{TableSourceConverters}} provide a
> similar functionality but use an external catalog. We might generialize this
> interface.
> In general a table source declaration depends on the following parts:
> {code}
> - Source
> - Type (e.g. Kafka, Custom)
> - Properties (e.g. topic, connection info)
> - Encoding
> - Type (e.g. Avro, JSON, CSV)
> - Schema (e.g. Avro class, JSON field names/types)
> - Rowtime descriptor/Proctime
> - Watermark strategy and Watermark properties
> - Time attribute info
> - Bucketization
> {code}
> This issue needs a design document before implementation. Any discussion is
> very welcome.
