Ingo Bürk commented on FLINK-23620:
-----------------------------------
The second point essentially means that the previous parser wasn't actually a
subset of YAML, right?
> Introduce proper YAML parsing to Flink's configuration

> Key: FLINK-23620
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-23620
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Runtime / Configuration
> Reporter: Mika Naylor
> Assignee: Mika Naylor
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> At the moment, the YAML parsing for Flink's configuration file
> ({{conf/flink-conf.yaml)}} is pretty basic. It only supports basic key value
> pairs, such as:
> {code:java}
> a.b.c: a value
> a.b.d: another value{code}
> As well as supporting some invalid YAML syntax, such as:
> {code:java}
> a: b: value{code}
>
> Introducing proper YAML parsing to the configuration component would let
> Flink users use features such as nested keys, such as:
> {code:java}
> a:
> b:
> c: a value
> d: another value{code}
> as well as make it easier to integrate configuration tools/languages that
> compile to YAML, such as Dhall.
