Eron Wright created FLINK-3883: ----------------------------------- Summary: Rename flink clients for inclusion on system path Key: FLINK-3883 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3883 Project: Flink Issue Type: Bug Components: Command-line client Reporter: Eron Wright Priority: Minor
I ran into some trouble in preparing a Homebrew formula to install Flink on Mac. Homebrew can install bin scripts into the system path, e.g. `/usr/local/bin/flink`: {code} $ cat /usr/local/bin/flink #!/bin/bash exec "/usr/local/Cellar/apache-flink/1.0.2/libexec/bin/flink" "$@" {code} It would be nice to install the various Flink shells too, but their names don't seem ideal for inclusion on the system path. I propose that they be renamed or aliased to have the following names (old -> new): {code} "pyflink2.sh" -> "pyflink2" "pyflink3.sh" -> "pyflink3" "start-scala-shell.sh" -> "flink-shell" {code} A related issue is, the shell scripts don't correctly determine their install location when called via a symlink. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
