Aws-sdk-java: AWS Glue Service APIs not available. GlueContext Missing!

Created on 26 Jul 2018 · 6Comments · Source: aws/aws-sdk-java

Hi,

None of the classes inside com.amazonaws.services.glue.* are available inside this SDK, which prevents developers from using the local IDE for development. For example, this https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-glue-samples/blob/master/examples/ResolveChoice.scala cannot be written or compiled in your IDE. The workaround is to download s3://aws-glue-jes-prod-us-east-1-assets/etl/jars/glue-assembly.jar and add it as a provided jar to SBT or Maven.

For SBT use this for example to add a local jar.
libraryDependencies += "com.amazonaws.services.glue" % "glue-services" % "1.0" from "file:///C:/Users/myusername/Downloads/glue-assembly.jar"

However this jar file is 368 MB in size. Surely Amazon must release these Scala classes as a Maven dependency.

Hi, is there any update on this? Id like to supply my own library the uses the Glue service APIs and downloading the assembly jar and including it is not really an option.

I've found this issue on the glue repo that complains about it not being available in Maven: https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-glue-samples/issues/21#issuecomment-405041473

Let me follow up with the glue developers to see if they have any news on getting this out to maven.

I've passed the feedback onto glue that it should be released to maven.

We still do not have maven release for GlueContext.
