How to Create a Socket Data Synchronization Jobs

  • Configuring the SeaTunnel config file

The following example demonstrates how to create a data synchronization job that reads data from Socket and prints it on the local client:

  1. # Set the basic configuration of the task to be performed
  2. env {
  3.   parallelism = 1
  4.   job.mode = "BATCH"
  5. }
  7. # Create a source to connect to socket
  8. source {
  9.     Socket {
  10.         host = "localhost"
  11.         port = 9999
  12.     }
  13. }
  15. # Console printing of the read socket data
  16. sink {
  17.   Console {
  18.     parallelism = 1
  19.   }
  20. }
  • Start a port listening
  1. nc -l 9999

  • Start a SeaTunnel task

  • Socket Source send test data

  1. ~ nc -l 9999
  2. test
  3. hello
  4. flink
  5. spark
  • Console Sink print data
  1. [test]
  2. [hello]
  3. [flink]
  4. [spark]
