May I use env variable in nifi.properties file?

Hello,

Let's say we have env variable HOSTNAME

May I set below in nifi.properties file?

nifi.web.http.host=$HOSTNAME

Thanks.

No, that will not work.

Thanks. I am working on setup NiFi cluster in Kubernetes.

Any suggestions on that?

What are K8s? A server type, an OS?

I am not familiar with what K8 is...

I suggest starting a new question rather then adding to this existing question so that it gets full exposure to the community.

I would also suggest providing as much detail as you can about the use case for your question.

Thanks,

Matt

Kubernetes(K8s) is a tool to deploy and manage Docker containers.

I'd like to manage NiFi docker containers in Kubernetes cluster.

I will create another topic for this. Thanks.
