https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/1800
couple of quick thoughts.
- we'll need to get all the version numbers aligned with whatever nifi
version this would be committed into. Currently that would be 1.3.0-SNAPSHOT.
- It would probably be a good idea to have the notion of
'nifi-leaderelection-api' which is not about zookeeper but rather just generic
election/tracking of a leader for a given thing (a partition?) Then there would
be zookeeper based implementations of those. Processors then can leverage the
api for their code but users can select whichever types of services exist
(zookeeper being the obvious initial example). The structure appears already
in place for this other than the current naming and perhaps the API referencing
zookeeper. Thoughts?
- It would be good to have a processor which leverages this or some docs
that go along with it to show suggested usage.
