Have we considered using the SSLContextService here rather than specifying
all of the keystore/truststore properties in the processor?
Usually the processor will have logic that says "if no SSLContextService
was selected then we are doing regular communication, if one is selected then
secure communication". This way you can avoid another property to specify if
SSL/TLS should be used.
An example of using this service is in InvokeHTTP...
Defining the property:
https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-standard-bundle/nifi-standard-processors/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/processors/standard/InvokeHTTP.java#L196
Using the service:
https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-standard-bundle/nifi-standard-processors/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/processors/standard/InvokeHTTP.java#L479
