Osama Neiroukh commented on FLINK-23230:
----------------------------------------
Thank you [~trohrmann].
Let me provide update on what I did, and I'll let you decide what to do with
this issue as I'm able to make forward progress. I didn't want to block on
these.
For node, I installed the expected version 10.9.0 manually on my machine.
Performance with Rosetta 2 (MacOS's x86/aarch64 emulation) is very good. So
that's good enough for now.
For protobuf within format/Parquet, I installed an x86 version in my local
maven repository, registered it with Maven, and again Rosetta 2 is able to run
it with no issues.
The final issue, fyi, was in flink-python. This uses protoc-jar, which only
supports very limited versions of protoc. I installed protoc x86 locally,
modified flink-python/pom.xml to include
<properties>
<protocCommand>protoc</protocCommand>
</properties>
and now it is using my locally installed protoc and working fine.
With all this, I was able to compile Flink all the way, run an example locally,
and verify that the web dashboard is also working well.
Thanks
Osama
> Cannot compile Flink on MacOS with M1 chip

> Key: FLINK-23230
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-23230
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build System
> Affects Versions: 1.13.1
> Reporter: Osama Neiroukh
> Priority: Minor
>
> Flink doesn't currently compile on MacOS with M1 silicon.
> This is true for all recent versions (1.13.X) as well as master.
> Some of the problems have potentially easy fixes, such as installing node
> separately or updating the relevant pom.xml to use a newer version of node. I
> am getting some errors about deprecated features being used which are not
> supported by newer node, but on the surface they seem easy to resolve.
> I've had less success with complex dependencies such as protobuf.
> My long term objective is to use and contribute to Flink. If I can get some
> help with the above issues, I am willing to make the modifications, submit
> the changes as a pull request, and shepherd them to release. If compilation
> on MacOS/M1 is not a priority, I can look for a virtual machine solution
> instead. Feedback appreciated.

> Thanks
