Common Flink Shell Commands¶
Before running the Flink shell commands, perform the following steps:
Install the Flink client in a directory, for example, /opt/client.
Run the following command to initialize environment variables:
source /opt/client/bigdata_env
If Kerberos authentication is enabled for the current cluster, run the following command to authenticate the user. If Kerberos authentication is disabled, skip this step.
kinit Service user
Run the related commands according to Table 1.

source Client installation directory/bigdata_env
None
Import client environment variables.
Restriction: If the user uses a custom script (for example, A.sh) and runs this command in the script, variables cannot be imported to the A.sh script. If variables need to be imported to the custom script A.sh, the user needs to use the secondary calling method.
For example, first call the B.sh script in the A.sh script, and then run this command in the B.sh script. Parameters can be imported to the A.sh script but cannot be imported to the B.sh script.
start-scala-shell.sh
local | remote <host> <port> | yarn: running mode
Start the scala shell.
sh generate_keystore.sh
-Run the generate_keystore.sh script to generate security cookie, flink.keystore, and flink.truststore. You need to enter a user-defined password that does not contain number signs (#).
