             Summary: Allow creating table sources/sinks from an Avro schema
                 Key: FLINK-9247
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9247
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Table API & SQL
            Reporter: Timo Walther
            Assignee: Timo Walther


FLINK-8537 introduced table factories for reading Avro records from a Kafka source. However, the configuration of the source requires an Avro generated class to be present in the classpath. This might make it difficult for users of the SQL Client (FLINK-7594) to quickly create a pipeline from a string-based Avro schema. In order to improve this, we need table source factories that can also deal with a schema instead of a Avro record class.
