Flink SQL JDBC Connector

Description

We can use the Flink SQL JDBC Connector to connect to a JDBC database. Refer to the Flink SQL JDBC Connector for more information.

Usage

1. download driver

A driver dependency is also required to connect to a specified database. Here are drivers currently supported:

Driver	Group Id	Artifact Id	JAR
MySQL	mysql	mysql-connector-java	Download
PostgreSQL	org.postgresql	postgresql	Download
Derby	org.apache.derby	derby	Download

After downloading the driver jars, you need to place the jars into $FLINK_HOME/lib/.

2. prepare data

Start mysql server locally, and create a database named "test" and a table named "test_table" in the database.

The table "test_table" could be created by the following SQL:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `test_table`(
   `id` INT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT,
   `name` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
   PRIMARY KEY ( `id` )
)ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Insert some data into the table "test_table".

3. seatunnel config

Prepare a seatunnel config file with the following content:

SET table.dml-sync = true;

CREATE TABLE test (
  id BIGINT,
  name STRING
) WITH (
'connector'='jdbc',
  'url' = 'jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test',
  'table-name' = 'test_table',
  'username' = '<replace with your username>',
  'password' = '<replace with your password>'
);

CREATE TABLE print_table (
  id BIGINT,
  name STRING
) WITH (
  'connector' = 'print',
  'sink.parallelism' = '1'
);

INSERT INTO print_table SELECT * FROM test;

4. run job

./bin/start-seatunnel-sql.sh --config <path/to/your/config>
