Please do not attempt to use python as a substitute for OS shell scripts.
It's a path to ruin, the mechanics of properly managing things on Bash-having
systems and Windows are fundamentally different (until we can just switch to
bash-only for windows 10).
> Resolve path name to nifi.sh in start script
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-1710
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1710
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Joey Frazee
> Priority: Trivial
>
> Currently if you symlink to nifi.sh the start script will not work because $0
> doesn't evaluate to the physical location and the script assumes
> bootstrap.conf is relative to the script.
> This means you can't, for example, symlink nifi.sh to /etc/init.d and use the
> respective service commands to control NiFi.
> Adding realpath or readlink to the script should fix this.
