[GitHub] nifi-registry issue #144: NIFIREG-209 Rebuild metadata DB from FlowPersisten...
Github user ijokarumawak commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/nifi-registry/pull/144 @bbende This is really cool! I was able to: 1. Setup two NiFi Registry environment using the same remote Git repository, but different branches, dev and prod. 2. Create new flow versions at dev and push it to remote origin/dev branch 3. Merge commits to origin/prod branch. Then remove database dir at prod environment to generate it from updated Git commits. 4. After restarting the prod NiFi Registry, I can import the new flows from dev to prod environment. 5. Updating existing flow scenario also worked. Even if I restored database from Git commits, NiFi was able to keep notice new version and change the deployed PG to a new version. Haven't looked at the detail of implementation, but from functional point of view, I'm a huge +1! Great job! ---

Github user kevdoran commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/nifi-registry/pull/144 This is a fun new feature @bbende. It will be nice for DR or as a mechanism to populate NiFi Registry instances in new environments with some canned flows. I looked at the code and tried it out and it's working well for me. There is some oddness when loading flows from 0.2.0 or 0.3.0 as they don't have all the metadata available, but I think that's fine. Going forward with git repos created after this feature exists should have everything there. Interested to hear from @ijokarumawak on this to get his input as he is the most experienced with the Java Git stuff, but consider me a tentative +1 on this PR. Cool stuff! ---
