------------------------------------

             Summary: Python API for streaming applications
                 Key: FLINK-5886
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5886
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Python API
            Reporter: Zohar Mizrahi


A work in progress to provide python interface for Flink streaming APIs. The core technology is based on jython and thus imposes two limitations: a. user defined functions cannot use python extensions. b. the python version is 2.x

The branch is based on Flink release 1.2.0, as can be found here:
https://github.com/zohar-pm/flink/tree/python-streaming

In order to test it, someone can run `flink-libraries/flink-python/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/python/api/jython/PythonStreamBinder.java` from IntelliJ IDE (assuming IntelliJ IDE is configured properly).
