---------------------------------
Summary: CLONE - Introduce proper YAML parsing to Flink's
configuration
Key: FLINK-33297
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-33297
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Runtime / Configuration
Reporter: Junrui Li
Assignee: Junrui Li
Fix For: 2.0.0
At the moment, the YAML parsing for Flink's configuration file
({{conf/flink-conf.yaml)}} is pretty basic. It only supports basic key value
pairs, such as:
{code:java}
a.b.c: a value
a.b.d: another value{code}
As well as supporting some invalid YAML syntax, such as:
{code:java}
a: b: value{code}
Introducing proper YAML parsing to the configuration component would let Flink
users use features such as nested keys, such as:
{code:java}
a:
b:
c: a value
d: another value{code}
as well as make it easier to integrate configuration tools/languages that
compile to YAML, such as Dhall.
