Paul Lin created FLINK-10218: -------------------------------- Summary: Allow write DataSet without path parameter Key: FLINK-10218 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10218 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: DataSet API Affects Versions: 1.6.0 Reporter: Paul Lin
Currently, DataSet API has two overloaded write methods for using FileOutputFormat as output format, and both require a path parameter, but the output path could already be set in the FileOutputFormat object. What's more, the subclasses of FileOutputFormat mostly don't have default constructors and required a path parameter too, so users have to set output path twice in the code, like: {code:java} String output = "hdfs:///tmp/"; dataset.write(new TextOutputFormat<>(new Path(output)), output); {code} So I propose to add another write method that requires no path parameter. May someone assign this issue to me? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
