-------------------------------------

Hi [~tashoyan] , I'm quite interested in this issue. In which Java file should I find the problem you describe?

> Flink configuration from user-provided ConfigMap

>                 Key: FLINK-30530
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-30530
>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Kubernetes Operator
>    Affects Versions: 1.15.2
>         Environment: Flink 1.15.2
> Flink Kubernetes operator 1.2.0
>            Reporter: Arseniy Tashoyan
>            Priority: Major
>
> Currently the Flink configuration can be specified in the YAML descriptor of FlinkDeployment via the _flinkConfiguration_ setting:
> {code:yaml}
> flinkConfiguration: 
>   taskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots: "2"
>   ...
> {code}
> Same for the logging configuration:
> {code:yaml}
> logConfiguration: 
>     "log4j-console.properties": |
>       rootLogger.level = DEBUG
>       ...{code}
> This makes the YAML descriptor overloaded and huge. In addition, Flink and logging configuration may differ for different applications, while the Kubernetes settings maybe same for all applications. Therefore it makes sense to extract Flink and logging configurations from the YAML descriptor.
> This can be done via a user-provided ConfigMap:
> {code:yaml}
> flinkConfigMap: basic-example-flink-config
> {code}
> In this example we have a Flink application {_}basic-example{_}. The _basic-example-flink-config_ ConfigMap contains all config files used by Flink: flink-conf.yaml, log4j-console.properties, possibly other files. The content of this ConfigMap gets mounted as a volume to {_}/opt/flink/conf{_}.
> Therefore we can have different Flink settings for different applications and the same YAML descriptor for all of them (only the value for _flinkConfigMap_ differs).
