Flink training workshop for JCConf 2016 (Java Community Conference @ Taiwan)

Apache Flink™ Training Workshop @ JCConf2016

This is the training material for the Apache Flink workshop at JCConf2016.

The tutorial code is still work in progress! However, workshop attendees can still follow the below instructions to prepare for the event.

Preparation Instructions for JCConf2016 Attendees

Attendees for the workshop are recommended to prepare the following before the event:

1. Clone this project: git clone https://github.com/flink-taiwan/jcconf2016-workshop.git

   The project contains example code we will be going through, and a relatively large streaming dataset (at dataset/nycTaxiRides.gz).

2. Install IntelliJ IDEA Community Version

   Throughout the workshop, we will mostly be using IntelliJ IDEA to learn how to program streaming applications with Flink's API. You can also use other IDEs that support Maven, but it is recommended to use IntelliJ IDEA.

3. Build or pull the workshop docker container environment: docker pull flinktw/jcconf2016-workshop

   Besides learning how to write Flink streaming programs, we will also be using Kafka, InfluxDB, and Grafana along with a standalone Flink cluster for some architectural practices. The container provides a prepared environment to setup these systems. Afterwards, you can startup the environment with:

docker run -it --rm -h jcconf2016-flink \
           -p 8081:8081 \ # 8081 for Flink JobManager Web UI
           -p 9092:9092 \ # 9092 for Kafka broker server
           -p 3000:3000 \ # 3000 for Grafana Web UI
           -p 8086:8086 \ # 8086 for InfluxDB server
           flinktw/jcconf2016-workshop bash
 ```
 
 If everything went well, you should be able to find the following layout within the environment:
 
 ```bash
 jcconf@jcconf2016-flink:~$ ls
 env-deploy.sh flink jcconf2016-workshop kafka
 ```
