--------------------------------
Summary: Add Process Group Configuration?
Key: NIFI-1096
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1096
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Configuration, Core Framework
Reporter: Ryan Leary
Fix For: 1.0.0
This is as much a request for comments as feature request.
I have a group of Processors that I often group into a Process Group. I make a
template of these processors. From there, I want to reuse that Process Group
several times, but with changing only a couple of configuration options within
the underlying Processors.
It would be really nice if we could a) have templated process groups, and b)
add configuration options to a process group that processors within the group
could reference.
As a concrete example, if I have two processors that push to the same Kafka
topic, I'd like to configure that at the "Process Group" level rather than
having to enter the process group, and modify the configuration of two
processors.
Feedback appreciated! I'm a newbie to the NiFi codebase, but could look at what
would be required to implement it if it's something people would find
useful/would be merged.
