             Summary: Enhanced About Box Version Information
                 Key: NIFI-2115
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2115
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core UI, Tools and Build
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: James Wing
            Assignee: James Wing
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.0.0


The UI's About dialog and underlying API provide the version of NiFi, like 
"0.7.0-SNAPSHOT".  For many bug reports and troubleshooting requests, this is 
not very precise, especially around rapidly changing code or platform-dependent 
behavior.  It would help if NiFi captured and displayed additional information: 
 

* NiFi build commit hash
* NiFi build branch
* NiFi build date/time
* Java Version
* Java Vendor (Oracle, OpenJDK)
* OS

Then a simple copy/paste from the about box would provide very specific 
information about a particular NiFi installation and which code it was derived 
from.
