-------------------------------------
Summary: Publish an alternative Java 11 docker image
Key: NIFI-9656
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-9656
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Docker
Affects Versions: 1.15.3
Environment: Docker
Reporter: Christoph Nölle
There have been requests before to update the official Docker image to Java 11
(such as [NIFI-9188|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-9188]). As I
understand, this would be a breaking change for many users, though, and
therefore has been postponed for Nifi 2.0. On the other hand, it would be quite
desirable if one could use Java 11 features in custom processors (without
maintaining a custom Docker image).
A solution could be to keep Java 8 for the default image (e.g. tagged "1.15.3"
= latest) and provide a second image, e.g. "1.15.3-openjdk-11". The Dockerfile
has already been adapted to support building with a Java 11 base image in
[https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/4460].
