Matt, The website looks great! I'd like us to incorporate the processor/controller service/reporting task documentation into the website. I think having this information on the website will showcase all the awesome input/output formats that are available in NiFi, and help new users see how NiFi can fit into their system.
Short term, could we work towards copying the html out of a running instance of NiFi and putting it on the website? I realize we need to come up with a sort of "aggregator" page to list all the processors/controller services/reporting tasks and link to their documentation. I can help with this if you'd like. Long term, I'd like us to have an automated way of generating this documentation at some point during the release process. I've thought about it a little and don't have any great ideas. I first wanted to use a Maven plugin, but this has dependency issues (it would depend on the nifi-documentation jar file that is being built as part of the build). We could have a script, or add a target to the nifi.sh script that just starts nifi enough to generate the documentation and then stops. I'm totally open to any ideas people have on this piece. Let me know what you think, Dan Bress Software Engineer ONYX Consulting Services ________________________________________ From: Joe Witt <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, May 13, 2015 9:41 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Website Transition Matt, Nice!
