> Update NAR maven plugin to include information about Extensions

>                 Key: NIFI-5859
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5859
>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Tools and Build
>            Reporter: Mark Payne
>            Assignee: Mark Payne

> In order to have the NiFi Registry host any extensions, the registry will 
> need a way to know what extensions exist in a given NAR. Currently, that 
> information is not available directly.
> The NAR maven plugin should be updated to provide a list of extensions and 
> for each one, provide at least the following minimal information:
>  * Extension Type
>  * Extension Name
>  * Capability Description
>  * Whether or not the component is Restricted, "sub-restrictions" it has, and 
> explanations of both
>  * Any Tags that the component has
>  * If the component is a Controller Service, any Controller Service API's 
> that it provides
> Additionally, it would be ideal to provide all documentation for the 
> component within the NAR. It is best, though, not to write the documentation 
> in HTML as is done now but rather in XML or some sort of form that provides 
> the information in a structured way without any styling. This would allow the 
> documentation to be rendered consistently, even if the styling changes from 1 
> version to the next.
