-------------------------------------
+1. This is complementary to what I am looking for with NIFI-6336.
> Provide configtest like functionality for NiFi

> Key: NIFI-3407
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3407
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Configuration
> Reporter: Aldrin Piri
> Priority: Major
>
> Apache httpd has a process wherein the syntax of config files is checked and
> if there are any issues. While this isn't a direct mapping in terms of the
> functionality that I think would be useful it establishes a foundation. In
> terms of orchestrating deployments and managing instances, it could be
> helpful to have the ability to run a state of the instance kind of check
> which ensure validity as well as help determine possible "gotchas."
> Ultimately, the idea is that we can generate a report of information that
> could help to provide a state of the configuration that would allow external
> tooling to make decisions as to how to interact.
> An illustrative example is that of joining a secured cluster. In this case,
> some cursory inspection of the associated zookeeper instance might indicate
> that a cluster is already in place. This information could then be used to
> make determinations of next actions in terms of how to bring the associated
> instance online and facilitate joining the cluster.
