------------------------------------
Summary: NiFi Stateless does not validate CS correctly
Key: NIFI-7380
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7380
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Pierre Villard
Assignee: Pierre Villard
When the flow executed with the NiFi Stateless running mode contains a
Controller Service with required properties, it'll fail as it does not take
into account the configuration when performing the validation of the component.
In *StatelessControllerServiceLookup*, the method
{code:java}
public void enableControllerServices(final VariableRegistry variableRegistry)
{code}
first validates the configured controller services and calls
{code:java}
public Collection<ValidationResult> validate(...){code}
This will create a *StatelessProcessContext* object and a
*StatelessValidationContext* object. Then the method *validate* is called on
the controller service and pass the validation context as argument. It will go
through the properties of the controller service and will retrieve the
configured value of the properties as set in the *StatelessProcessContext*
object. The problem is that the *properties* map in the Stateless Process
Context supposed to contain the configured values is never set. As such, any
required property in a Controller Service is considered as configured with a
null value if there is no default value. This will cause the component
validation to fail and the flow won't be executed.
I opened a PR with a solution that does solve this issue. However I'm not sure
this issue does not affect other scenarios and a better approach could be
necessary (more in line with what is done in NiFi core).
