apache-flink Getting started with apache-flink Flink Environment setup

Example

To run a flink program from your IDE(we can use either Eclipse or Intellij IDEA(preffered)), you need two dependencies:flink-java / flink-scala and flink-clients (as of february 2016). These JARS can be added using Maven and SBT(if you are using scala).

• Maven

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
    <artifactId>flink-java</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.4</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
    <artifactId>flink-clients_2.11</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.4</version>
</dependency>

• SBT name := " "

   version := "1.0"
   
   scalaVersion := "2.11.8"
   
   libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
     "org.apache.flink" %% "flink-scala" % "1.2.0",
     "org.apache.flink" %% "flink-clients" % "1.2.0"
   )
  

important: the 2.11 in the artifact name is the scala version, be sure to match the one you have on your system.
