----------------------------------
Summary: Incorporate MiNiFi Java functionality as a specialized
assembly of NiFI
Key: MINIFI-422
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MINIFI-422
Project: Apache NiFi MiNiFi
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Aldrin Piri
At its core the Java implementation of MiNiFi has largely been a core body of
NiFi core libraries in a separate assembly with some additional extension
points, namely those of configuration (via YAML) and configuration change
listeners.
Due to working with some of the internals of NiFi that are not exactly meant
for external consumption, there has been a certain impedance with each
successive release to make use of the latest and greatest.
This ticket is to investigate and consider the incorporation of MiNiFi Java
into the NiFi code base in a manner as highlighted above, extending/adapting
the core libraries, providing some additional extension points, and then
generating a custom assembly.
The idea is that in lieu of duplicating bits of code and providing workarounds
around some of the internal APIs we can have a more streamlined build and keep
these items in lockstep with the core NiFi libraries being more aware of
changes that MiNiFi is inherently dependent upon.
To our users, there should be little perceptible change. The core means of
interaction should remain while providing a similar footprint.
