Hey, the Apache SeaTunnel community is up for something!

That’s right, the community worked hard to get the new Apache SeaTunnel Connector API out. After the release, users think highly of this function, because it saves the trouble of repeatedly writing Flink and Spark codes like before. At the same time, there are more choices of connectors, which is more convenient for the users.

In this way, the new connector project is already in operation, and the community has actively contributed a lot of connectors while supporting the running of examples.

For example, many tasks in the list below are already claimed. Thank you to all that devoted themselves to the work! 🥰🥰🥰

Incomplete list

However, recently, Core Developers of Apache SeaTunnel think this project can pace faster. This new connector access incentive plan is online to promote the project to be completed as soon as possible. Everyone who completes any of the tasks can earn an abundant reward!

Let’s take a look at how to take part in this incentive program.

Rules of the activity

The rules are very simple, and the points system that is very popular is adopted.

See the list in the link (https://github.com/apache/incubator- seatunnel/issues/1946). There are currently a total of 103 Source and Sink tasks (including claimed tasks) that need to be accessed.

1. According to the difficulty of the project, we divide the tasks into three levels: Easy (Low), Intermediate (Middle), and Difficult (High), corresponding to 1 point, 2 points, and 3 points respectively, and each point can be exchanged for 200 yuan worth of gift package; secondly, the tasks are also divided into three levels (Low), intermediate (Middle) and difficult (High) according to priority;

2. Weighting:

  • Completion of the source and sink access of the same project will earn 1 weighted point;
  • 1 point is weighted for completing tasks with High priority.

For example: after completing Druid’s Source and Sink access, the points earned are 2 (Middle) + 2 (Middle) + 1 (weighted points) + 1 (weighted points for high priority) = 6 points, which can be exchanged for 400+400 +200+200=a spree worth 1200 yuan.

Time limit

The activity will last for four weeks from August 11, 2022, to 24:00 on September 9, 2022, and submission of results before the deadline of the event will be considered successful participation in the event.

How to participate

GitHub: https://github.com/apache/incubator-seatunnel/issues/1946

Claim the task under the👆👆👆 issue above and submit the issue/PR link.

Rewards

1. Spree from the community (as long as the claimed task is completed during the activity period, there is no upper limit on the reward, the more tasks you take, the more you will get)

2. Apache SeaTunnel official gifts

3. A handwritten thank-you card for the contributors

Completeness evaluation

Submitting an issue to a PR and being merged will be considered a complete cycle, and it will be deemed completed by merging before the activity deadline to get the reward.

Special Contribution Award

In addition, the Core developer also emphasized that access to the CDC is Very urgent! Very urgent! Very urgent! Important things deserve highlighted three times!

Therefore, to complete the CDC access faster, we also set up a special contribution award. After completing the CDC access, you can get a spree reward worth 1,500 yuan!

CDC is a very important connector, which can synchronize the incremental change records of the source database (Source) to one or more data destinations (Sink). It is a technical solution that can truly realize the real-time incremental data synchronization of the database. Those who contribute to CDC access will make a milestone contribution to Apache SeaTunnel! 🤙🤙

🚀🚀 How to claim the task?

We have created a new issue for CDC access, welcome to claim it at https://github.com/apache/incubator-seatunnel/issues/2394

⏰⏰ Deadline:

Since the CDC access is relatively complex, the completion time is set at the end of September (until September 30) to deliver the results.

🔖🔖 Participation and completeness evaluation:

Same rules as above.

At the end of the event, the complete list of new connector access plans is here displayed again.

The rules are so simple, come and claim the task to earn rewards!

Let’s have a small talk in the end. Open source itself is not utilitarian, the material incentives will never be the goal of every open source lover. This incentive plan is set to vibrate the community and invite you to enjoy yourself in the community, I believe no one can refuse a pleasant surprise!

I hope you all have fun in the Apache SeaTunnel community, and you can also gain skills, friendship, vision, and everything you expect in the process of contributing and happy open-sourcing!
