We now use scala 2.12 to archive the apache iceberg-flink-runtime jar, so it's recommended to use flink 1.11 bundled with scala 2.12. + +```bash +wget https://downloads.apache.org/flink/flink-1.11.1/flink-1.11.1-bin-scala_2.12.tgz +tar xzvf flink-1.11.1-bin-scala_2.12.tgz +``` + +Step.2 Start a standalone flink cluster within hadoop environment. + +```bash +# HADOOP_HOME is your hadoop root directory after unpack the binary package. +export HADOOP_CLASSPATH=`$HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop classpath` + +# Start the flink standalone cluster +./bin/start-cluster.sh +``` + +Step.3 Start the flink SQL client. + +We've created a separate `flink-runtime` module in iceberg project to generate a bundled jar, which could be loaded by flink SQL client directly. + +If we want to build the `flink-runtime` bundled jar manually, please just build the `iceberg` project and it will generate the jar under `<iceberg-root-dir>/flink-runtime/build/libs`. Of course, we could also download the `flink-runtime` jar from the [apache official repository](https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/iceberg/iceberg-flink/). Review comment: I expected that the iceberg-flink-runtime will be deployed here once we released the 0.10.0 , although we have not accomplished it. OK, the path should be changed from `iceberg-flink` to `iceberg-flink-runtime` . ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
