Beam Starter Projects
Beam Starter Projects
David Cavazos
We’re happy to announce that we’re providing new Beam starter projects! 🎉
Setting up and configuring a new project can be time consuming, and varies in different languages. We
hope this will make it easier for you to get started in creating new Apache Beam projects and pipelines.
All the starter projects come in their own GitHub repository, so you can simply clone a repo and you’re
ready to go. Each project comes with a README with how to use it, a simple “Hello World” pipeline,
and a test for the pipeline. The GitHub repositories come pre-configured with GitHub Actions to
automatically run tests when pull requests are opened or modified, and Dependabot is enabled to make
sure all the dependencies are up to date. This all comes out of the box, so you can start playing with
your Beam pipeline without a hassle.
Here are the starter projects; you can choose your favorite language:
We have updated the Java quickstart to use the new starter project, and we’re working on updating the
Python and Go quickstarts as well.
We hope you find this useful. Feedback and contributions are always welcome! So feel free to create a
GitHub issue, or open a Pull Request to any of the starter project repositories.
