Nifi startup error after introducing custom processor

[#1]

Hi

I have added the below PropertyDescriptor to my custom processor to be able to use Mongo connection pool. however, Nifi wont start. Below errors are generated. can you advise ?

I included the below dependencies as well.

  
  <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.nifi</groupId>
            <artifactId>nifi-mongodb-client-service-api</artifactId>
            <version>1.8.0</version>
            <type>jar</type>
        </dependency>
        


import org.apache.nifi.mongodb.MongoDBClientService;

     static final PropertyDescriptor CLIENT_SERVICE = new PropertyDescriptor.Builder()
        .name("mongo-client-service")
        .displayName("Client Service")
        .description("If configured, this property will use the assigned client service for connection pooling.")
        .required(true)
        .identifiesControllerService(MongoDBClientService.class)
        .build();

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.nifi</groupId>
    <artifactId>nifi-mongodb-client-service-api</artifactId>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

Your dependency should be that.

You also need to have a NAR dependency

<packaging>nar</packaging>
<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.nifi</groupId>
        <artifactId>nifi-mongodb-client-service-api-nar</artifactId>
        <version>1.8.0</version>
        <type>nar</type>
    </dependency>

Thank you @Otto Fowler

I changed it as per your advice. However, I still face the same issue. For some reason, project doesnt include all the pom jar/nar

Below is my pom.xml
