----------------------------------
Summary: Make Java launcher configurable in pipeline options.
Key: BEAM-11394
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-11394
Project: Beam
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: sdk-py-core
Reporter: Kyle Weaver
Assignee: Kyle Weaver
We need Java to run job servers, expansion services etc. in subprocesses [1]
and [2] (and possibly elsewhere I have missed?). Currently this code always
uses the "java" executable on the $PATH. But changing $PATH or adding an alias
is a global(ish) change, and it's cumbersome, or even impossible in some
environments (Forge). Having a pipeline option for it is easier and better
isolated.
