I can probably help, Sunny. I made some notes a few years ago on doing
this. How this is done on later versions hasn't changed I don't think.

Hi there,
I’m a dev from Microsoft Azure Event Hub team. We noticed that the Azure
Event Hub processors on Nifi is using an very old version and may cause
usability problems to the users. We want to help to upgrade it to the
newest version!
However, I met some problem trying to debug with the project with IntelliJ
IDE. I can build-run the code with command lines, read log when exception
happens, and I can successfully opened the project in IntelliJ and edit,
but I’m not sure how to run and debug the project in IntelliJ. More
specifically, we wanna attach the running Nifi (http://localhost:8080/nifi/)
with the IDE so that we can have breakpoints, check runtime value without
having to print variables to log (but we didn’t find a way yet). We wanna
ensure the quality, so we want to do enough testing etc, so we hope to work
on debugging more effectively.
Could you help to explain how to work on the project with IntelliJ, or is
there any good ways?
Best,
Sunny
