如何构建和使用flink-connector-kinesis？

Question

I'm trying to use Apache Flink with AWS kinesis. The document says that I have to build the connector on my own.

Therefore, I build the connector and added the jar file for my project and also, I put the dependency on my pom.xml file.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
    <artifactId>flink-connector-kinesis_2.11</artifactId>
    <version>1.6.1</version> 
</dependency>

However, when I tried to build using mvn clean package I got an error message like this

[INFO] -----------------------< kkaldk:flink-kinesis >-----------------------
[INFO] Building Flink Quickstart Job 0.1
[INFO] --------------------------------[ jar ]---------------------------------
[WARNING] The POM for org.apache.flink:flink-connector-kinesis_2.11:jar:1.6-SNAPSHOT is missing, no dependency information available

Could you help me to fix this?

This is what I've done (which is wrong procedure)

1. started project following this document
2. build connector from flink master source (which is 1.8-snapshot)
3. add dependency with 1.6.1 version.

This is what I've done for solution.

1. I downloaded 1.6.1 release from here .

2. unzip the file (the archive will be unzip in .../flink-release-1.6.1/

3. built it by mvn clean install -Pinclude-kinesis -DskipTests

Then I have flink-connector-kinesis_2.11 version 1.6.1 in my local maven repository

(for me, path was like this): ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/flink/flink-connector-kinesis_2.11

After then, I could use this connector at any project by adding dependency with this code. (I don't have to add the jar file anymore.)

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
    <artifactId>flink-connector-kinesis_2.11</artifactId>
    <version>1.6.1</version> 
</dependency>
