Maximilian Michels commented on BEAM-7420:
------------------------------------------

Thank you for the response. I figured that you somehow excluded the Flink 
runtime manually.

Actually, the Runner jar is completely self-contained. You can spin up a Flink 
cluster and run a Beam pipeline from it. Setting the dependencies to 
{{provided}} would mean this is no longer possible. We could probably work 
around this by 1) re-adding the runtime dependencies in the example pom and 2) 
only require the dependencies during testing e.g. {{testCompile}}.

> The {{FlinkPipelineOptions}} imports various Flink enums which make it 
> impossible to e.g. run the direct runner with the same classpath but without 
> the flink runtime. The fix is potentially easy - make the arguments strings 
> and convert them to enums at the callsites.
