Mark Payne created NIFI-1006: -------------------------------- Summary: Change format for configuring repositories in nifi.properties file Key: NIFI-1006 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1006 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: Improvement Components: Configuration, Core Framework Reporter: Mark Payne Fix For: 1.0.0
Currently, the Content Repository, FlowFile Repository, and Provenance Repository are all configured within the nifi.properties file. This includes the repository implementation to use and all properties for those repositories. This becomes quite confusing to configure, and it makes it very difficult to provide examples of each of these repositories. I would like to see this changed to a format like is used to configure the Authority Providers. This way, in the nifi.properties file, we would configure just two things: the .xml file that includes the repository configurations (with IDs) and the ID of the repository to use. This also makes it far easier to create a repository that may wrap one or more other repositories, by defining them all in the .xml file and then specifying the ID of the 'wrapping' repository as the one to use. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
