According to Flink SQL Hive: Using bundled hive jar:
The following tables list all available bundled hive jars. You can pick one to the /lib/ directory in Flink distribution.
- flink-sql-connector-hive-1.2.2 (download link)
- flink-sql-connector-hive-2.2.0 (download link) ...
However, these dependencies are not available from Maven central. As a work around, I use user defined dependencies, but this is not recommended:
the recommended way to add dependency is to use a bundled jar. Separate jars should be used only if bundled jars don’t meet your needs.
I wonder why the bundle jars are not available in Maven central?
Follow-up: Since they are not available from Maven central, I wonder how to include them in pom.xml in order to run mvn package, if I don't want to use user defined dependencies?
Thanks!
The answer is, I am wrong. flink-sql-connector-hive does exist in maven central, see https://search.maven.org/artifact/org.apache.flink/flink-sql-connector-hive-2.2.0_2.11/1.12.0/jar.
