Apache Beam: Cannot Find DataflowRunner

Question

I am trying to start a pipeline that I was able to successfully execute using DirectRunnerin Google Cloud Dataflow. When I execute this Maven command:

mvn compile exec:java \
    -Dexec.mainClass=com.example.Pipeline \
    -Dexec.args="--project=project-name \
    --stagingLocation=gs://bucket-name/staging/ \
    ... custom arguments ...
    --runner=DataflowRunner"

I get the following error:

No Runner was specified and the DirectRunner was not found on the classpath.
[ERROR] Specify a runner by either:
[ERROR]     Explicitly specifying a runner by providing the 'runner' property
[ERROR]     Adding the DirectRunner to the classpath
[ERROR]     Calling 'PipelineOptions.setRunner(PipelineRunner)' directly

I intentionally deleted DirectRunnerfrom mine pom.xmland added:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.beam</groupId>
    <artifactId>beam-runners-google-cloud-dataflow-java</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.0</version>
    <scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>

I went ahead and removed the tag <scope>and then called options.setRunner(DataflowRunner.class), but that didn't help. Extending my own interface PipelineOptionsfrom DataflowPipelineOptionsalso did not solve the problem.

It seems to be ignoring the parameter runnerin such a way that I cannot debug.

Update: here is the full pom.xmlone if this helps:

Answer 1

PipelineOptions Pipeline.create() .

PipelineOptionsFactory.register(MyOptions.class);
MyOptions options = PipelineOptionsFactory.fromArgs(args).withValidation().as(MyOptions.class);
Pipeline pipeline = Pipeline.create(options); // Don't forget the options argument.
...
pipeline.run();
