ASF subversion and git services commented on NIFI-221: ------------------------------------------------------ Commit c53b0f9d15390ccee1c8011e6a05db82ad02f74c in incubator-nifi's branch refs/heads/develop from [~markap14] [ https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator-nifi.git;h=c53b0f9 ] NIFI-221: Fixed shutdown of HandleHttpRequest and provided documentation > Build Processors that allow for receiving and responding to arbitrary HTTP > requests > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-221 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-221 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Extensions > Reporter: Mark Payne > Assignee: Mark Payne > Fix For: 0.0.2 > > > The idea here is that we can receipt an HTTP request and use NiFi, in essence > to build a web server graphically. This opens up a wide range of > possibilities, by allowing a DFM to easily add a web front-end to any service > that NiFi can interact with or to perform any sort of action that NiFi has > the ability to perform, such as data format conversion, etc. > For example, if you want to provide a web-based front-end to an SFTP Server, > you could do so by creating a flow like: > ReceiveHTTPRequest -> PutSFTP -> RespondHTTPRequest -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
