Joe Witt commented on NIFI-13301:
---------------------------------
i'd just say someone has to host/maintain/support this thing. Does not have to
be a vendor but I suspect that is the model we can leverage. Other projects
have figured this out we can learn from.. Thanks for capturing James!
> Create NiFi Processor Marketplace App Powered by NiFi Registry
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-13301
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-13301
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Extensions, NiFi Registry
> Environment: Linux: Ubuntu 20.04 or 22.04
> Reporter: James Guzman (Medel)
> Assignee: James Guzman (Medel)
> Priority: Minor
>
> *Objective:* Improve/enable sharing/reuse of at least two features of Apache
> NiFi, so the community can have an easier time contributing their flows
> and/or custom processors into a NiFi Marketplace:
> * {*}Pre-Designed Flows{*}: (Approach 1) stored in a NiFi Registry or
> accessible location. (Approach 2) NiFi Registry can also substituted by
> NiFi's git registry client having the location of the NiFi Marketplace.
> Thus, we just have a git location and NiFi uses that to find/store flows.
> * *Components/Processors* built in *Java/Python* that anyone is free to use
> * *End to End Full Stack Applications Powered By NiFi or MiNiFi CPP?* The
> frontend could be various ones from PyQT, ReactJS, H2O.ai Wave, 3D Slicer,
> OHIF Viewer, etc: (Maybe this one can be subscription based where users get
> access if they invest in the monthly or yearly subscription?)
> {*}Project Ownership{*}: There will be a clear line that the NiFi Marketplace
> is not owned by the Apache NiFi PMC, rather it will be managed and owned by a
> vendor in close alignment with NiFi, which we will announce at a later time.
>
> {*}Motivation (NiFi){*}: Some people in the community have shown interest in
> having a NiFi Processor Marketplace where they can contribute their category
> of processors. In particular, I saw some people interested in contributing
> their NiFi python processors. This NiFi Processor marketplace could be also
> applied toward the community interested in contributing custom NiFi java
> processors.
> * {*}Extra MiNiFi C+{+}{+}{*}: We could even add a section for MiNiFi C+
> custom processors. There is a part of the MiNiFi build process that brings in
> NiFi through building the JNI extension. So, that is a way to integrate NiFi
> Registry there too.
> I have briefly talked with [~bbende] and [~joewitt] asking them questions on
> ways to bring custom python processors into production. One of the routes was
> through leveraging NiFi Registry in connection with Apache NiFi to streamline
> integration. For my use case, I would leverage the NiFi Processor Marketplace
> to start contributing my AI/DL "Medical Imaging" Pipeline of custom NiFi
> Python Processors where I focused on my master thesis AI/DL for stroke
> diagnosis.
> *High Level Details of NiFi Processor Marketplace App:* For a full stack NiFi
> Processor Marketplace App, there are frameworks we can leverage for the UI
> from ReactJS (this mainly is used for frontend), H2O.ai Wave (this can be
> used for full stack, but probably would mainly be used for the frontend
> portion) and other options. in the case that we want to make something more
> custom to display each category of processors. This full stack application
> could interact wth the NiFi Registry, which is the central location for
> storage and management of shared resources across one or more instances of
> NiFi and/or MiNiFi (C++). What are some hosting options for Apache projects?
