-----------------------------------------------
Shall I begin to work on this if no one else is?
> 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).
