[jira] [Created] (FLINK-12557) Unify create table DDL with clause
and connector descriptor keys
Danny Chan created FLINK-12557:
----------------------------------
Summary: Unify create table DDL with clause and connector descriptor keys
Key: FLINK-12557
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-12557
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Table SQL / API
Affects Versions: 1.8.0
Reporter: Danny Chan
Assignee: Danny Chan
Fix For: 1.9.0
The *with* option in table DDL defines the properties needed for specific connector to create TableSource/Sink. The properties structure for SqlClient config YAML is defined in [Improvements to the Unified SQL Connector API|https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Yaxp1UJUFW-peGLt8EIidwKIZEWrrA-pznWLuvaH39Y/edit#heading=h.41fd6rs7b3cf], in this design, the properties can be categorized into 4 parts:
# Top level properties: name, type(source, sink), update-mode ...
# Connector specific properties: connector.type, connector.path ...
# Format properties: format.type, format.fields.1.name ...
# Table schema properties: (can be omitted for DDL)
This properties structure is reasonable for YAML, but they are not that concise enough for developers. So there also defines a tool class named [DescriptorProperties|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/b3604f7bee7456b8533e9ea222a833a2624e36c2/flink-table/flink-table-common/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/table/descriptors/DescriptorProperties.java#L67] to reconstruct the data structure(like TableSchema) from the flat k-v strings.
So in order to reduce complexity and keep the KV consistency for DDL with properties and TableFactory properties, i proposed to simplify the DDL with properties keys as following (corresponding to above 4 categories):
# Top level properties: keep same as that in the YAML e.g. type, update-mode
# Connector specific properties: start with prefix named the connector type e.g. for kafka connector, the properties are defined as kafka.k1 = v1, kafka.k2 = v2
# Format properties: format.type simplified to format and the others keep the same e.g. format = 'json', format.line-delimiter = "\n"
# Table schema properties: omitted.
Here is a demo of creat table DDL:
{code:java}
CREATE TABLE Kafka10SourceTable (
intField INTEGER,
stringField VARCHAR(128) COMMENT 'User IP address',
longField BIGINT,
rowTimeField TIMESTAMP,
WATERMARK wm01 FOR 'longField' AS BOUNDED WITH DELAY '60' SECOND
)
COMMENT 'Kafka Source Table of topic user_ip_address'
WITH (
type='kafka',
property-version='1',
version='0.10',
kafka.topic='test-kafka-topic',
kafka.startup-mode = 'latest-offset'
kafka.specific-offset = 'offset'
format='json'
format.property-version = '1'
format.version='1'
format.derive-schema='true'
)
{code}
