--------------------------------

Hi [~jark] , I think users may wan to do something dependening on 'op', for 
example calculating the total number of delete or update record from mysql, or 
output different 'op' of data to different tables for batch processing. 

I am not sure it is worth to support. But we encountered with a requirement 
like this, the trick solution is that the changelog-json or canal-json can be 
seen as a nested json. 

 
{code:java}
create table xxx(
    data Row(col1 int, col2 int, col3 string),
    op string 
)
{code}
 

> debezium and canal support read medata op and type

> in our scene, there will be two types of database data delivered to the data 
> warehouse:
>  1. the first type is exactly the same as the online table
>  2. the second type adds two columns on the basis of the previous table, 
> representing action_type and action_time respectively, which is to record 
> events
>  in order to solve this demand by flink sql, it is necessary to be able to 
> read the action_type and action_time from debezium or canal metadata, 
> action_time can read from ingestion-timestamp metadata, but can not read 
> action_type from metadata.
> the database action is insert/update/delete, but there will be 
> insert/update_before/update_after/delete in Flink's RowKind, so action_type 
> is RowKind will be better for us. at the same time, flink needs to modify 
> RowKind to insert for record this event table.
