-Flink provides a Command-Line Interface (CLI) to run programs that are packaged
-as JAR files, and control their execution. The CLI is part
-of any Flink setup, available in local single node setups and in
-distributed setups. It is located under `<flink-home>/bin/flink`
-and connects by default to the running JobManager that was
-started from the same installation directory.
-
-The command line can be used to
-
-- submit jobs for execution,
-- cancel a running job,
-- provide information about a job,
-- list running and waiting jobs,
-- trigger and dispose savepoints
-
-A prerequisite to using the command line interface is that the Flink
-master (JobManager) has been started (via
-`<flink-home>/bin/start-cluster.sh`) or that another deployment target such as YARN or Kubernetes is
-available.
-
-### Deployment targets
-
-Flink has the concept of executors for defining available deployment targets. You can see the
-available executors in the output of `bin/flink --help`, for example:
-
-```
-Options for Generic CLI mode:
- -D <property=value> Generic configuration options for
- execution/deployment and for the configured executor.
- The available options can be found at
- https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-stabl
- e/deployment/config.html
- -t,--target <arg> The deployment target for the given application,
- which is equivalent to the "execution.target" config
- option. The currently available targets are:
- "remote", "local", "kubernetes-session", "yarn-per-job",
- "yarn-session", "yarn-application" and "kubernetes-application".
-```
-
-When running one of the `bin/flink` actions, the executor is specified using the `--executor`
-option.
-

+## Job Lifecycle Management
-<div data-lang="python" markdown="1">
-
-<span class="label label-info">Note</span> When submitting Python job via `flink run`, Flink will run the command “python”. Please run the following command to confirm that the command “python” in current environment points to a specified Python version 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 or 3.8:
+A prerequisite for the commands listed in this section to work is to have a running Flink deployment
+like [Kubernetes]({% link deployment/resource-providers/native_kubernetes.md %}),
+[YARN]({% link deployment/resource-providers/yarn.md %}) or any other option available. Feel free to
+[start a Flink cluster locally]({% link deployment/resource-providers/standalone/local.md %}#start-a-local-flink-cluster)
+to try the commands on your own machine.
+
+### Submitting a Job
+Submitting a job means uploading the job's JAR and related dependencies to the Flink cluster and
+initiating the job execution. For the sake of this example, we select a long-running job like
+`examples/streaming/StateMachineExample.jar`. Feel free to select any other JAR archive from the
+`examples/` folder or deploy your own job.

-
-- Gracefully stop a job with a savepoint (streaming jobs only):

-
-### Savepoints
-
-[Savepoints]({% link ops/state/savepoints.md %}) are controlled via the command line client:
-
-#### Trigger a Savepoint
-
+Submitting the job using `--detached` will make the command return after the submission is done.
+The output contains (besides other things) the ID of the newly submitted job.
+```
+Usage with built-in data generator: StateMachineExample [--error-rate <probability-of-invalid-transition>] [--sleep <sleep-per-record-in-ms>]
+Usage with Kafka: StateMachineExample --kafka-topic <topic> [--brokers <brokers>]
+Options for both the above setups:
+ [--backend <file|rocks>]
+ [--checkpoint-dir <filepath>]
+ [--async-checkpoints <true|false>]
+ [--incremental-checkpoints <true|false>]
+ [--output <filepath> OR null for stdout]
+
+Using standalone source with error rate 0.000000 and sleep delay 1 millis
+
+Job has been submitted with JobID cca7bc1061d61cf15238e92312c2fc20
+```
+The usage information printed lists job-related parameters that can be added to the end of the job
+submission command if necessary. For the purpose of readability, we assume that the returned JobID is
+stored in a variable `JOB_ID` for the commands below:
{% highlight bash %}
-./bin/flink savepoint <jobId> [savepointDirectory]
+export JOB_ID="cca7bc1061d61cf15238e92312c2fc20"
{% endhighlight %}
-This will trigger a savepoint for the job with ID `jobId`, and returns the path of the created savepoint. You need this path to restore and dispose savepoints.
-
+There is another action called `run-application` available to run the job in
+[Application Mode]({% link deployment/index.md %}#deployment-modes). This documentation does not address
+this action individually as it works similarly to the `run` action in terms of the CLI frontend.
-Furthermore, you can optionally specify a target file system directory to store the savepoint in. The directory needs to be accessible by the JobManager.
-
-If you don't specify a target directory, you need to have [configured a default directory]({% link ops/state/savepoints.md %}#configuration). Otherwise, triggering the savepoint will fail.
-
-#### Trigger a Savepoint with YARN
+### Job Monitoring
+You can monitor any running jobs using the `list` action:
{% highlight bash %}
-./bin/flink savepoint <jobId> [savepointDirectory] -yid <yarnAppId>
+./bin/flink list
{% endhighlight %}
+```
+Waiting for response...
+------------------ Running/Restarting Jobs -------------------
+30.11.2020 16:02:29 : cca7bc1061d61cf15238e92312c2fc20 : State machine job (RUNNING)
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+No scheduled jobs.
+```
+Jobs that were submitted but not started, yet, would be listed under "Scheduled Jobs".
-This will trigger a savepoint for the job with ID `jobId` and YARN application ID `yarnAppId`, and returns the path of the created savepoint.
-
-Everything else is the same as described in the above **Trigger a Savepoint** section.
-
-#### Stop
-
-Use the `stop` to gracefully stop a running streaming job with a savepoint.
+### Creating a Savepoint
+Savepoints can be created to save the current state a job is in. All that's needed is the JobID:
{% highlight bash %}
-./bin/flink stop [-p targetDirectory] [-d] <jobID>
+./bin/flink savepoint $JOB_ID /tmp/flink-savepoints
{% endhighlight %}
+```
+Triggering savepoint for job cca7bc1061d61cf15238e92312c2fc20.
+Waiting for response...
+Savepoint completed. Path: file:/tmp/flink-savepoints/savepoint-cca7bc-bb1e257f0dab
+You can resume your program from this savepoint with the run command.
+```
+The savepoint folder is optional and needs to be specified if
+[state.savepoints.dir]({% link deployment/config.md %}#state-savepoints-dir) isn't set.
-A "stop" call is a more graceful way of stopping a running streaming job, as the "stop" signal flows from
-source to sink. When the user requests to stop a job, all sources will be requested to send the last checkpoint barrier
-that will trigger a savepoint, and after the successful completion of that savepoint, they will finish by calling their
-`cancel()` method. If the `-d` flag is specified, then a `MAX_WATERMARK` will be emitted before the last checkpoint
-barrier. This will result all registered event-time timers to fire, thus flushing out any state that is waiting for
-a specific watermark, e.g. windows. The job will keep running until all sources properly shut down. This allows the
- job to finish processing all in-flight data.
-
-
-#### Cancel with a savepoint (deprecated)
+The path to the savepoint can be used later on to [restart the Flink job](#starting-a-job-from-a-savepoint).
-You can atomically trigger a savepoint and cancel a job.
+#### Disposing a Savepoint
+The `savepoint` action can be also used to remove savepoints. `--dispose` with the corresponding
+savepoint path needs to be added:
{% highlight bash %}
-./bin/flink cancel -s [savepointDirectory] <jobID>
+./bin/flink savepoint --dispose /tmp/flink-savepoints/savepoint-cca7bc-bb1e257f0dab $JOB_ID
{% endhighlight %}
+```
+Disposing savepoint '/tmp/flink-savepoints/savepoint-cca7bc-bb1e257f0dab'.
+Waiting for response...
+Savepoint '/tmp/flink-savepoints/savepoint-cca7bc-bb1e257f0dab' disposed.
+```
+Triggering the savepoint disposal through the `savepoint` action does not only remove the data from
+the storage but makes Flink clean up the savepoint-related metadata as well.
-If no savepoint directory is configured, you need to configure a default savepoint directory for the Flink installation (see [Savepoints]({% link ops/state/savepoints.md %}#configuration)).
-
-The job will only be cancelled if the savepoint succeeds.
-
-<p style="border-radius: 5px; padding: 5px" class="bg-danger">
- <b>Note</b>: Cancelling a job with savepoint is deprecated. Use "stop" instead.
-</p>
-
-#### Restore a savepoint
+### Cancelling a Job
+Cancelling a job can be achieved through the `cancel` action:
{% highlight bash %}
-./bin/flink run -s <savepointPath> ...
+./bin/flink cancel $JOB_ID
{% endhighlight %}
+```
+Cancelling job cca7bc1061d61cf15238e92312c2fc20.
+Cancelled job cca7bc1061d61cf15238e92312c2fc20.
+```
+The corresponding job's state will be transitioned from `Running` to `Cancelled`. Any computations
+will be stopped.
-The run command has a savepoint flag to submit a job, which restores its state from a savepoint. The savepoint path is returned by the savepoint trigger command.
-
-By default, we try to match all savepoint state to the job being submitted. If you want to allow to skip savepoint state that cannot be restored with the new job you can set the `allowNonRestoredState` flag. You need to allow this if you removed an operator from your program that was part of the program when the savepoint was triggered and you still want to use the savepoint.
+#### Stop: Cancelling a Job but creating a final Savepoint
+Another action for stopping a job is `stop`. It function in the same way as `cancel` but creates a
+savepoint as part of the cancellation process:
{% highlight bash %}
-./bin/flink run -s <savepointPath> -n ...
+./bin/flink stop --savepointPath /tmp-flink-savepoints $JOB_ID
{% endhighlight %}
+```
+Suspending job "cca7bc1061d61cf15238e92312c2fc20" with a savepoint.
+Savepoint completed. Path: file:/tmp/flink-savepoints/savepoint-cca7bc-bb1e257f0dab
+```
+We have to use `--savepointPath` to specify the savepoint folder if
+[state.savepoints.dir]({% link deployment/config.md %}#state-savepoints-dir) isn't set.
-This is useful if your program dropped an operator that was part of the savepoint.
-
-#### Dispose a savepoint
+### Starting a Job from a Savepoint
+Starting a job from a savepoint can be achieved using the `run` (and `run-application`) action.
{% highlight bash %}
-./bin/flink savepoint -d <savepointPath>
+./bin/flink run --detached --fromSavepoint /tmp/flink-savepoints/savepoint-cca7bc-bb1e257f0dab ./examples/streaming/StateMachineExample.jar
{% endhighlight %}
+```
+Usage with built-in data generator: StateMachineExample [--error-rate <probability-of-invalid-transition>] [--sleep <sleep-per-record-in-ms>]
+Usage with Kafka: StateMachineExample --kafka-topic <topic> [--brokers <brokers>]
+Options for both the above setups:
+ [--backend <file|rocks>]
+ [--checkpoint-dir <filepath>]
+ [--async-checkpoints <true|false>]
+ [--incremental-checkpoints <true|false>]
+ [--output <filepath> OR null for stdout]
+
+Using standalone source with error rate 0.000000 and sleep delay 1 millis
+
+Job has been submitted with JobID 97b20a0a8ffd5c1d656328b0cd6436a6
+```
-Disposes the savepoint at the given path. The savepoint path is returned by the savepoint trigger command.
-
-If you use custom state instances (for example custom reducing state or RocksDB state), you have to specify the path to the program JAR with which the savepoint was triggered in order to dispose the savepoint with the user code class loader:
+See how the command is equal to the [initial run command](#submitting-a-job) except for the
+`--fromSavepoint` parameter which is used to refer to the state of the
+[previously cancelled job](#cancelling-a-job). A new JobID is generated that can be used to
+maintain the job.
-{% highlight bash %}
-./bin/flink savepoint -d <savepointPath> -j <jarFile>
-{% endhighlight %}
-
-Otherwise, you will run into a `ClassNotFoundException`.

+## Advanced CLI
+
+### REST API
+
+The Flink cluster can be also managed using the [REST API]({% link ops/rest_api.md %}). The commands
+described in previous sections are a subset of what is offered by Flink's REST endpoints. Therefore,
+tools like `curl` can be used to get even more out of Flink.
+
+### Selecting Deployment Targets
+
+Flink supports different deployment backends like [Kubernetes]({% link deployment/resource-providers/native_kubernetes.md %})
+or [YARN]({% link deployment/resource-providers/yarn.md %}) which are described in more detail in the
+Resource Provider section. You can specify the mode you're Flink cluster is running in through the
Review comment:
We don't have a dedicated resource provider section. That's why I mentioned two examples to be able to at least reference to their subsections.
