>                 Key: FLINK-14991
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-14991
>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Command Line Client, Deployment / Scripts
>            Reporter: Guowei Ma
>            Priority: Minor

>  Currently, Flink depends on 6 types of files: configuration files, system jars files, script files、library jar files, plugin jar files, and user jars files. These files are in different directories. 
> Flink exports 5 environment variables to locate these different type files: `FLINK_CONF_DIR`,`FLINK_LIB_DIR`,`FLINK_OPT_DIR`,`FLINK_PLUGIN_DIR`,`FLINK_BIN_DIR`.
> It is not a good style that exports an environment variable for every type of file.
> So this jira proposes to export the `FLINK_HOME` environment variable to all the entrypoint. Derive the directory of the different type files from the `FLINK_HOME` environment variable and every type file has a fixed directory name.
>  This also has another benefit that the method implies the directory structure is the same in all the situations.
