There is an ongoing discussion about enhancing client API of FLINK. You can
checkout [this

For this special JIRA, I'm afraid it diverges from community consensus.
> Add getter for ContextEnvironment instance in StreamContextEnvironment
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-14436
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-14436
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: API / DataStream
> Affects Versions: 1.9.0
> Reporter: Kevin Zhang
> Priority: Major
> Labels: easyfix
>
> Currently in StreamContextEnvironment the member variable ctx, an instance of
> ContextEnvironment, is private. It's very helpful to add a getter for ctx
> because through the ContextEnvironment we can access the ClusterClient object
> of the application, and then get the information of the flink jobs or
> submit/cancel jobs. It's especially useful for developers building a server
> upon flink.
