---------------------------------------
Summary: Optional Flow Validation Bypass for Missing Directories
in Apache MiNiFi
Key: NIFI-15971
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-15971
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: MiNiFi
Affects Versions: 2.9.0
Environment: minifi on rhel
Reporter: dariusz wapinski
Hello,
I would like to ask whether it would be possible to add a configuration flag in
Apache MiNiFi that disables flow validation related to missing directories
during agent startup.
For example, when a flow uses the ListFile processor and the source directory
does not exist yet, the MiNiFi agent fails to start because the flow is
considered invalid.
In some environments, directories are created dynamically after the agent has
already started. In such cases, it would be very useful to have an option to
bypass this validation. Instead of preventing startup, the agent could simply
log a warning or error message indicating that the directory does not currently
exist.
This feature would improve support for dynamic and containerized environments
where resources may appear after startup.
Thank you for considering this request.
