Summary: Build xTableSource from Avro schemas Key: FLINK-9813 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9813 Project: Flink Issue Type: Wish Components: Table API & SQL Affects Versions: 1.5.0 Reporter: François Lacombe As Avro provide efficient data schemas formalism, it may be great to be able to build Flink Tables Sources with such files. More info about Avro schemas :[https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.8.1/spec.html#schemas] For instance, with CsvTableSource : Parser schemaParser = new Schema.Parser(); Schema tableSchema = schemaParser.parse("avro.json"); Builder bld = CsvTableSource.builder().schema(tableSchema); This would give me a fully available CsvTableSource with columns defined in avro.json It may be possible to do so for every TableSources since avro format is really common and versatile. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
