> Configuration through environment variables
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-1427
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1427
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Local Runtime
> Environment: Deployment
> Reporter: Maximilian Michels
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: configuration, deployment
>
> Like Hadoop or Spark, etc. Flink should support configuration via shell
> environment variables. In cluster setups, this makes things a lot easier
> because writing config files can be omitted. Many automation tools (e.g.
> Google's bdutil) use (or abuse) this feature.
> For example, to set up the task manager heap size, we would run `export
> FLINK_TASKMANAGER_HEAP=4096` before starting the task manager on a node to
> set the heap memory size to 4096MB.
> Environment variables should overwrite the regular config entries.
