# Seatunnel Runs On Flink

Flink is a powerful high-performance distributed stream processing engine. More information about it you can search for `Apache Flink`

### Set Flink Configuration Information In The Job

Begin with `flink.`

Example:
I set a precise Checkpoint for this job

```
env {
  parallelism = 1  
  flink.execution.checkpointing.unaligned.enabled=true
}
```

Enumeration types are not currently supported, you need to specify them in the Flink conf file ,Only these types of Settings are supported for the time being:<br/>
Integer/Boolean/String/Duration

### How To Set Up A Simple Flink Job

This is a simple job that runs on Flink. Randomly generated data is printed to the console

```
env {
  # common parameter
  parallelism = 1
  checkpoint.interval = 5000

  # flink special parameter
  flink.execution.checkpointing.mode = "EXACTLY_ONCE"
  flink.execution.checkpointing.timeout = 600000
}

source {
  FakeSource {
    row.num = 16
    plugin_output = "fake_table"
    schema = {
      fields {
        c_map = "map<string, string>"
        c_array = "array<int>"
        c_string = string
        c_boolean = boolean
        c_int = int
        c_bigint = bigint
        c_double = double
        c_bytes = bytes
        c_date = date
        c_decimal = "decimal(33, 18)"
        c_timestamp = timestamp
        c_row = {
          c_map = "map<string, string>"
          c_array = "array<int>"
          c_string = string
          c_boolean = boolean
          c_int = int
          c_bigint = bigint
          c_double = double
          c_bytes = bytes
          c_date = date
          c_decimal = "decimal(33, 18)"
          c_timestamp = timestamp
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

### How To Run A Job In A Project

After you pull the code to the local, go to the `seatunnel-examples/seatunnel-flink-connector-v2-example` module and find `org.apache.seatunnel.example.flink.v2.SeaTunnelApiExample` to complete the operation of the job.
