----------------------------------
Summary: Enable extensions to use SchemaRegistryService
Key: NIFI-5123
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5123
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Extensions
Reporter: Matt Burgess
Currently SchemaRegistryService is in the nifi-record-serialization-services
NAR, which means that other extensions (unless they had
nifi-record-serialization-services-nar as a parent which is not recommended)
cannot make use of this abstract class. The class uses utilities from
nifi-avro-record-utils such as SchemaAccessUtils, and is a very helpful base
class used to offer a consistent user experience for selecting schemas (by
name, by test, from a schema registry, etc.). Other extensions wishing to
provide access to a schema registry would duplicate much of the logic in
SchemaRegistryService, which offers challenges for consistency and
maintainability.
This Jira proposes to move SchemaRegistryService into nifi-avro-record-utils,
where it can be leveraged by any extension that depends on it, and thus we can
strongly recommend that record-aware processors that will interact with a
schema registry use SchemaRegistryService as a parent class.
