Hey, I recently upgraded from 1.11.1 to 1.11.3 and found that the GRPC processors (ListenGRPC and InvokeGRPC) had seemingly been removed from the packaged release. But it seems that the source code in the Nifi repo for the “nifi-grpc-bundle” is still there and has not been removed.
I have a couple of different versions in use and have found the bundles are missing in some but not others: - 1.11.0: GRPC nar is missing - 1.11.1: GRPC nar is included - 1.11.3: GRPC nar is missing My suspicion is the package was accidentally not included in the packaged release, is that plausible? This reminded me of another processor (ConvertJSONToAvro) which during the 1.9.x to 1.10.0 upgrade was removed without warning. At the time I put it down to the Nifi community preferring the use of “ConvertRecord” instead. Again, I found that the source code remained in the repo and was referenced in the “nifi-nar-bundles/pom.xml”. These links add to the confusion. While nifi-kite-nar seems to have been removed after 1.9.x, nifi-grpc-nar reports to not be included/referenced since 1.4, even while I have been using the processors through to 1.11.1. https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.nifi/nifi-kite-nar https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.nifi/nifi-grpc-nar There have not been any commits in the last few months affecting these bundles aside from release preparation commits. I have been able to copy the 1.11.1 version and run that on 1.11.3 for now, but I am hoping it can be included again in the next release. Thanks in advance, -- Dirk Arends
