Can we set classpath using "java -classpath " command in Nifi like we do in other CLI hadoop component. If not than Is it possible to set this in bootstrap.conf file or Nifi.sh script. I have seen a way in this post https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-416

however not sure this is possible or not.

Can you give some background on why you want to set the classpath?

NiFi has a very specific class-loader isolation model and generally you don't add JARs to NiFi's classpath like you do with other projects.

Hi,

 

Can you explain how can I use config files inside code which are defined under src/main/resources folder ?

 

I tried using standard Java approach via getResourceAsStream() or getResource() methods to access resources under classpath. But in Ni-fi, while execution it outputs IllegalArgumentException.
