Custom classpath (using MapR-FS in lieu of HDFS)

Hi there, First post in here so please... you know the drill. I was wondering: What is the recommended approach to add custom classes to NiFi on load time? Reason I ask is simple: Our HDFS store is in fact a MapR-FS store and as such I need to use the proprietary MapR client and Hadoop JARs on

Hello Andre, Found on Github here is someone who already got NiFi working with MapR and documented their approach. https://github.com/bbukacek/nifi-hadoop-libraries-bundle Thanks Joe On Mon, Oct 12, 2015 at 9:46 AM, Oleg Zhurakousky wrote: > May be I am missing
