             Summary: Flink configuration from user-provided ConfigMap
                 Key: FLINK-30530
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-30530
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Kubernetes Operator
    Affects Versions: 1.15.2
         Environment: Flink 1.15.2

Flink Kubernetes operator 1.2.0
            Reporter: Arseniy Tashoyan


Currently the Flink configuration can be specified in the YAML descriptor of 
FlinkDeployment via the _flinkConfiguration_ setting:
{code:yaml}
flinkConfiguration: 
  taskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots: "2"
  ...
{code}
Same for the logging configuration:
{code:yaml}
logConfiguration: 
    "log4j-console.properties": |
      rootLogger.level = DEBUG
      ...{code}
This makes the YAML descriptor overloaded and huge. In addition, Flink and 
logging configuration may differ for different applications, while the 
Kubernetes settings maybe same for all applications. Therefore it makes sense 
to extract Flink and logging configurations from the YAML descriptor.

This can be done via a user-provided ConfigMap:
{code:yaml}
flinkConfigMap: basic-example-flink-config
{code}
In this example we have a Flink application {_}basic-example{_}. The 
_basic-example-flink-config_ ConfigMap contains all config files used by Flink: 
flink-conf.yaml, log4j.properties, possibly other files.

Therefore we can have different Flink settings for different applications and 
the same YAML descriptor for all of them (only the value for flinkConfigMap 
differs).
