-----------------------------------
Summary: Show bulletins/configuration errors in Configure
[Component] dialog to allow faster resolution of validation issues
Key: NIFI-3807
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3807
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core UI
Affects Versions: 1.2.0
Reporter: Andy LoPresto
When configuring a processor, there can be many validation issues (e.g.
{{SSLContextService}} keystore path doesn't exist, etc.). These issues are
visible when mousing over the warning icon in the controller services listing
or on the processor on the canvas, but not when editing the component
properties. If there are multiple issues, it can require a user to open and
close the dialog multiple times to ensure all the validation errors are
resolved.
I propose displaying the errors in the Configure dialog as well. This could be
any/all of:
* Display a scrollable list of validation errors below the main dialog view.
Clicking the specific error could send UI focus to the appropriate property
field
* Highlighting individual property fields with a red glow and error message
underneath/to the side/with an error icon that allows mouse over
* Other community suggestions...
