[jira] [Closed] (FLINK-11266) Only release hadoop-free Flink

["Chesnay Schepler (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-11266?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Chesnay Schepler closed FLINK-11266.
------------------------------------
      Resolution: Fixed
    Release Note: 
Convenience binaries that include hadoop are no longer released.

If a deployment relies on flink-shaded-hadoop2 being included in flink-dist, then it must be manually downloaded and copied into the /lib directory.
Alternatively, a Flink distribution that includes hadoop can be built by packaging flink-dist and activating the "include-hadoop" maven profile.

As hadoop is no longer included in flink-dist by default, specifying "-DwithoutHadoop" when packaging flink-dist no longer impacts the build.

>
> Currently we release 10 different binary releases (2 scala versions * (4 hadoop version + hadoop-free)), which has increased the size of our release to more than 2 GB.
> Naturally, building Flink 10 times also takes a while, slowing down the release process.
> However, the only difference between the hadoop versions is the bundled {{flink-shaded-hadoop2}} jar; the rest is completely identical.
> I propose to stop releasing hadoop-specific distributions, and instead have us release multiple versions of {{flink-shaded-hadoop2}} that users copy into the hadoop-free distribution if required.
