Andre commented on NIFI-1169:
-----------------------------
Option 1. is to download the fonts from the internet and add them to the source.
Option 2. Use the path google recommends on its documentation and import [Web
Font Loader| https://github.com/typekit/webfontloader] and set the scripts to a
small [time-out|https://github.com/typekit/webfontloader#timeouts] (e.g. 1sec).
> Nifi WebUI makes calls to CDNs
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-1169
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1169
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.4.0
> Reporter: Andre
>
> When loading the help section, NiFi seems to make calls to CDNs like:
> {code}
> https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:300,300italic,400,400italic,600,600italic|Noto+Serif:400,400italic,700,700italic|Droid+Sans+Mono:400
> {code}
> This hangs the rendering of the page, causing a reasonable annoyance to DFMs
> operating NiFi's that have no direct connectivity to the Internet or those
> with proxies incorrectly configured... :-)
> It would be great if the CDN code is removed or at least wrapped around some
> sort of testing that prevent the delays in rendering the help pages.
