Flip189 flinksql client features

Open snuyanzin opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

What is currently missing?

There is a FLIP189[1] which was accepted however not yet reviewed. This FLIP among others suggests this set of features

  • Line continuation pattern
  • Syntax highlighter (alt-h to change highlight style)
  • Command completion
  • Line numbers (alt-shift-n to toggle line numbers) demo for all points mentioned above: https://asciinema.org/a/446247?speed=3.0
  • Prompt handler (right and left prompts) demo: https://asciinema.org/a/458191?speed=4.0

How could this be improved?

I implemented and ported this feature to Flink 1.13.x branch. So need to update dockerized flink-sql-client from https://github.com/snuyanzin/flink/releases/tag/flip189_1
