ASF GitHub Bot commented on NIFI-4839: -------------------------------------- Github user pvillard31 commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/2477 @bbende agree with your points: we can keep things as-is for now and have a larger effort for documentation with follow-up JIRAs. @aperepel I *really* believe that online documentation provides a much better exposure. A lot of people I discuss with completely ignore the existence of the toolkit binaries. And we've a lot of interesting stuff in it. I think that providing a mechanism with annotations in the code and automatic generation of the documentation can answer both the online documentation and the information in the command's output. That would be the best approach IMO. > Create a CLI in NiFi Toolkit to interact with NIFi Registry/deploy flows > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: NIFI-4839 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4839 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Bryan Bende > Assignee: Bryan Bende > Priority: Major > > Now that we have NiFi Registry and the ability to import/upgrade flows in > NiFi, we should offer a command-line tool to interact with these REST > end-points. This could part of NiFi Toolkit and would help people potentially > automate some of these operations. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
