• gravitino-flink-connector-runtime-1.18_2.12-${gravitino-version}.jar
• JDBC driver

SQL Example

-- Suppose jdbc_catalog is the JDBC catalog name managed by Gravitino

USE CATALOG jdbc_catalog;

SHOW DATABASES;
-- +------------------+
-- |    database name |
-- +------------------+
-- |          mysql   |
-- +------------------+
     
CREATE DATABASE jdbc_database;
-- [INFO] Execute statement succeed.

SHOW DATABASES;
-- +------------------+
-- |    database name |
-- +------------------+
-- |          mysql   |
-- |  jdbc_database   |
-- +------------------+

USE jdbc_database;
-- [INFO] Execute statement succeed.
    
SET 'execution.runtime-mode' = 'batch';
-- [INFO] Execute statement succeed.

SET 'sql-client.execution.result-mode' = 'tableau';
-- [INFO] Execute statement succeed.
     
USE jdbc_database;
-- [INFO] Execute statement succeed.

SHOW TABLES;
-- Empty set

CREATE TABLE jdbc_table_a (
   aa BIGINT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY NOT ENFORCED,
   bb BIGINT
);
-- [INFO] Execute statement succeed.

SHOW TABLES;
-- +--------------+
-- |   table name |
-- +--------------+
-- | jdbc_table_a |
-- +--------------+
-- 1 row in set

INSERT INTO jdbc_table_a VALUES(1,2);

SELECT * FROM jdbc_table_a;
-- +----+----+
-- | aa | bb |
-- +----+----+
-- |  1 |  2 |
-- +----+----+
-- 1 row in set

INSERT INTO jdbc_table_a VALUES(2,3);
-- [INFO] Submitting SQL update statement to the cluster...
-- [INFO] SQL update statement has been successfully submitted to the cluster:
