Joseph Percivall commented on MINIFI-422:
-----------------------------------------
Definitely interested in how this would pan out and I agree that it could go a
long way in streamlining and promoting the MiNiFi Java development. As well as
facilitating better feature parity between the two. +1
Do you foresee integrating some of the current MiNiFi specific functionality
(ie. config change listeners) into core NiFi or would they stay separate?
> Incorporate MiNiFi Java functionality as a specialized assembly of NiFI

> Key: MINIFI-422
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MINIFI-422
> Project: Apache NiFi MiNiFi
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Aldrin Piri
>
> At its core the Java implementation of MiNiFi has largely been a core body of
> NiFi core libraries in a separate assembly with some additional extension
> points, namely those of configuration (via YAML) and configuration change
> listeners.
> Due to working with some of the internals of NiFi that are not exactly meant
> for external consumption, there has been a certain impedance with each
> successive release to make use of the latest and greatest.
> This ticket is to investigate and consider the incorporation of MiNiFi Java
> into the NiFi code base in a manner as highlighted above, extending/adapting
> the core libraries, providing some additional extension points, and then
> generating a custom assembly.
> The idea is that in lieu of duplicating bits of code and providing
> workarounds around some of the internal APIs we can have a more streamlined
> build and keep these items in lockstep with the core NiFi libraries being
> more aware of changes that MiNiFi is inherently dependent upon.
> To our users, there should be little perceptible change. The core means of
> interaction should remain while providing a similar footprint.
