Mingliang Liu created FLINK-30479: ------------------------------------- Summary: Document flink-connector-files for local execution Key: FLINK-30479 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-30479 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Documentation Affects Versions: 1.16.0 Reporter: Mingliang Liu
The file system SQL connector itself is included in Flink and does not require an additional dependency. However, if a user uses the filesystem connector for [local execution](\{{< ref "docs/dev/dataset/local_execution" >}}), for e.g. running Flink job in the IDE, she will need to add dependency. Otherwise, the user will get validation exception: {{{}Cannot discover a connector using option: 'connector'='filesystem'{}}}. This is confusing and can be documented. The scope of the files connector dependency should be {{{}provided{}}}, because they should not be packaged into the JAR file. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
