I'm getting a number of issues building the project with these generated
classes. Why do they need to be generated?
> Simple Username/Password Authentication
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-1614
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1614
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Reporter: James Wing
> Priority: Minor
>
> NiFi should include a simple option for username/password authentication
> backed by a local file store. NiFi's existing certificate and LDAP
> authentication schemes are very secure. However, the configuration and setup
> is complex, making them more suitable for long-lived corporate and government
> installations, but less accessible for casual or short-term use. Simple
> username/password authentication would help more users secure more NiFi
> installations beyond anonymous admin access.
