I'm already doing something like that with a single HandleHTTPRequest and a 
RouteOnAttribute just after to send it to the appropriate location. You can 
have multiple HandleHTTPResponses so it's really not all that complicated.


Thanks

Subject: NiFi as RESTful server?


Hello,



I have a project where I’d like NiFi to expose about 4 different RESTful 
endpoints.

The flow behind each of these involves a half-dozen steps and is different in 
each case.



I wanted to set it up so that each flow started with a HandleHTTPRequest 
processor bound to the appropriate URL path. However, it turns out that two 
such processors cannot cohabitate because each one tries to start its own 
server bound to the given port.

I’m wondering:

  *   Is there a better way of doing this, without having to have a single 
HandleHTTPRequest and making my flows more complicated with all the required 
connections to link it to my current entry points?
  *   Would it be technically possible to have some sort of “HTTPService” 
controller that just starts the server and binds to the port, and then multiple 
“HTTPServiceListener” processors that use it? Or is it not possible for a 
Controller Service to “wake up” a Processor/initiate a flow?



Thanks for the help,



Kelsey
