Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai updated FLINK-12308: ---------------------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: 1.9.0) 1.10.0 > Support python language in Flink Table API > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: FLINK-12308 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-12308 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Table SQL / API > Affects Versions: 1.9.0 > Reporter: sunjincheng > Assignee: sunjincheng > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Fix For: 1.10.0 > > Time Spent: 10m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > At the Flink API level, we have DataStreamAPI/DataSetAPI/TableAPI&SQL, the > Table API will become the first-class citizen. Table API is declarative, and > can be automatically optimized, which is mentioned in the Flink mid-term > roadmap by Stephan. So, first considering supporting Python at the Table > level to cater to the current large number of analytics users. And Flink's > goal for Python Table API as follows: > * Users can write Flink Table API job in Python, and should mirror Java / > Scala Table API > * Users can submit Python Table API job in the following ways: > ** Submit a job with python script, integrate with `flink run` > ** Submit a job with python script by REST service > ** Submit a job in an interactive way, similar `scala-shell` > ** Local debug in IDE. > * Users can write custom functions(UDF, UDTF, UDAF) > * Pandas functions can be used in Flink Python Table API > A more detailed description can be found in > [FLIP-38.|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-38%3A+Python+Table+API] > For the API level, we make the following plan: > * The short-term: > We may initially go with a simple approach to map the Python Table API to > the Java Table API via Py4J. > * The long-term: > We may need to create a Python API that follows the same structure as > Flink's Table API that produces the language-independent DAG. (As Stephan > already motioned on the [mailing > thread|http://apache-flink-mailing-list-archive.1008284.n3.nabble.com/DISCUSS-FLIP-38-Support-python-language-in-flink-TableAPI-td28061.html#a28096]) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.14#76016)
