Simon Weng updated NIFI-7718:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
We're seeing the need of NiFI REST clients in different languages, such as 
Python, Go, etc, so that software can be created to control and manage NiFi 
cluster and flows.

Since the RESTful API is documented in OpenAPI spec v2, a client SDK can be 
generated via 
[openapi-generator|https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator]

Individual effort is seen from the community, such as:
 * [https://github.com/erdrix/nigoapi]
 * [https://github.com/simingweng/nifi-go-client]
 * [https://github.com/Chaffelson/nipyapi]

It would be beneficial to the community to consolidate the effort and centrally 
maintain the Client SDK effort for everybody to use.

Just like {{minifi}} being a sub project of NiFi, we can create sub project for 
different language bindings, such as:
 * apache/nifi-clients
 * apache/nifi-client-go

A single repo like {{nifi-clients}} can house all the languages that does not 
requires separate repo for publishing, {{nifi-client-go}} is an exception 
because Go Module couples with its own repo.
