-----------------------------
Summary: Add variables on templates
Key: NIFI-6499
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6499
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Framework
Reporter: Raymond
I would like to set variables on creating a template. Currently, a template is
copy. On some parameters I would like to set as variable (or part of the
parameter value as variable).
On instantiating the template the variables are set by the user. After
instantiation the variables are fixed text. So the variables are not runtime
variables, by only designtime variables (similar to Maven archetypes).
Now I do it like this.
1) Set parameters/values like this: ${variableName}
2) Export the template
3) Search ${variableName} and replace by new value
4) Import the template
Maybe this could be part of
"[https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NIFI/Better+Support+for+Parameterizing+Flows]";,
but that seems to focus on runtime.
h3.
