Robert Metzger commented on FLINK-12279:
----------------------------------------
I'm not sure if we want to have such a connector in Flink. It will never
provide any advanced delivery guarantees, and it is probably fairly easy to
implement.
This feels like a great extension that could exist outside of Flink's main
codebase.
Once it has been created as an extension, I'm happy to refer to it on
[https://flink.apache.org/ecosystem.html].
> Create source to allow streaming data from websocket.

> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Connectors / Common
> Reporter: Dominik Wosiński
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently, there exists an API that allows user to read data from regular
> Java socket. I think we should also create an API that will allow reading and
> streaming data from websockets too. Java does have the `javax.websocket-api`
> that allows asynchronous reading from webockets and I think it could be used
> for this case.
