Stefano Baghino commented on FLINK-992: --------------------------------------- What is the status of this issue? > Create CollectionDataSets by reading (client) local files. > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-992 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-992 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: DataSet API, Python API > Reporter: Fabian Hueske > Assignee: niraj rai > Priority: Minor > Labels: starter > > {{CollectionDataSets}} are a nice way to feed data into programs. > We could add support to read a client-local file at program construction time > using a FileInputFormat, put its data into a CollectionDataSet, and ship its > data together with the program. > This would remove the need to upload small files into DFS which are used > together with some large input (stored in DFS). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
