Provide a source of infinite text stream for test purposes #60

Open functicons opened 5 years ago

functicons commented 5 years ago

We need an easy way to get an infinite input stream to test long-running stream processing. Sometimes setting up Kafka or Pub/Sub is too complex for test purposes. Flink socketTextStream seems to be an option. We can consider provide a simple TCP server which serves infinite text streams.
