Andrew Lim commented on NIFI-1796: ---------------------------------- This doesn't help solve the core issue of this ticket, but related to the documentation comments, I filed https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3345. Basically, since the processor list is so long now, we could make the left nav sections of the doc collapsible so areas like the Developer Guide are no longer obscured. > Create the 'Hello World' example of custom processor development > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-1796 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1796 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Task > Components: Documentation & Website > Reporter: Joseph Witt > Assignee: Oleg Zhurakousky > > We really need to create a simple guide for how to build custom processor in > nifi. The sort of 'hello world' example. > This was created due to finding it hard to give a nice simple short pointer > for a question on the mailing list. > We do have a solid developer guide here [1] that goes into the key concepts > and processor development a bit. The next best thing is to use the supplied > maven archetype to lay down the fundamental pieces. You can read a bit more > about that here [2]. Finally something that is also quite helpful is looking > at the standard processors to see if anything follows the pattern/problem you > had in mind and which can serve as a good basis [3] > [1] https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/developer-guide.html > [2] > https://richardstechnotes.wordpress.com/2015/12/06/setting-up-for-custom-nifi-processor-development/ > [3] > https://github.com/apache/nifi/tree/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-standard-bundle/nifi-standard-processors/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/processors/standard -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
