-----------------------------------------
I have done some work on this and tested it. The fix is quite straightforward
using relative paths.
The code is here https://github.com/vs186031/nifi/tree/nifi-747 and submitted a
pull request to the main tree.

> Key: NIFI-747
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-747
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Reporter: Mark Payne
> Labels: beginner, newbie
> Fix For: 0.4.0

>
> When using ListenHTTP, you have to post to
> http(s)://<hostname>:<port>/contentListener
> The /contentListener part is often problematic, as it's often mistyped and
> really serves no purpose, since the processor starts an embedded web server
> with only a single servlet.
> We cannot remove the "/contentListener" path because we need to maintain
> backward compatibility. However, we can provide a new property to configure
> it, setting the default to "/contentListener". This way, when a user adds a
> ListenHTTP Processor, he/she can change the path to "/"
