Re: [DISCUSS] Deprecate/remove Twitter connector

Any SSE/EventSource Java Client should work. I have not personally used one. From a quick search, maybe https://github.com/launchdarkly/okhttp-eventsource or something like it? On Mon, Jan 31, 2022 at 11:45 AM Francesco Guardiani < france...@ververica.com> wrote: > > Shameless plug: Maybe th

> Shameless plug: Maybe the Wikipedia EventStreams SSE API would make for a great connector example in Flink? Sounds like a great idea! Do you have a ready to use Java Client for that?

Re: [DISCUSS] Deprecate/remove Twitter connector

Thanks @Martijn for driving this! +1 for deprecating and removing it. All the concerns mentioned previously are valid. It is good to know that the upcoming connector template/archetype will help the user for the kickoff. Beyond that, speaking of using a real connector as a sample, since Flink is he

Re: [DISCUSS] Deprecate/remove Twitter connector

I agree. The Twitter connector is used in a few (unofficial) tutorials, so if we remove it that will make it more difficult for those tutorials to be maintained. On the other hand, if I recall correctly, that connector uses V1 of the Twitter API, which has been deprecated, so it's really not very

[DISCUSS] Deprecate/remove Twitter connector

Hi everyone, I would like to discuss deprecating Flinks' Twitter connector [1]. This was one of the first connectors that was added to Flink, which could be used to access the tweets from Twitter. Given the evolution of Flink over Twitter, I don't think that: * Users are still using this connecto
