Troy Melhase reassigned NIFI-5658: ---------------------------------- Assignee: Troy Melhase > Build list of processors with various attributes at startup > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-5658 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5658 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Core Framework, Extensions > Affects Versions: 1.7.1 > Reporter: Andy LoPresto > Assignee: Troy Melhase > Priority: Major > Labels: component, security, tag > > There are some attributes of processors that are useful to expose to users. > Qualities like "contains sensitive property descriptor(s)", "has required > property descriptor(s) with no default value", "uses Controller Service X", > etc. can help users categorize these components. > Rather than require annotations (which requires a code change and release to > update), Bryan Bende brought up querying these attributes at startup (NAR > loading) and building simple lists/maps contained in memory. > Exposing these collections can help with searching/filtering processors in > the *Add Processor* dialog, understanding immediate needs on template import > / versioned flow snippet import, etc. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
