jingzhang updated FLINK-5570:
-----------------------------
Description:
This issue aims to support register one or more {{ExternalCatalog}} (which is
referred in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5568) to
{{TableEnvironment}}. After registration, SQL and TableAPI queries could access
to tables in the external catalogs without register those tables one by one to
{{TableEnvironment}} beforehand.
We plan to add two APIs in {{TableEnvironment}}:
1. register externalCatalog
{code}
def registerExternalCatalog(name: String, externalCatalog: ExternalCatalog):
Unit
{code}
2. scan a table from registered catalog and returns the resulting {{Table}},
the API is very useful in TableAPI queries.
{code}
def scan(catalogName: String, tableIdentifier: TableIdentifier): Table
{code}
> Support register external catalog to table environment
