Background:We are using Apache NIFI data flow to move data local from to Hadoop based file systems.We are executing the NIFI processors by calling the NIFI rest API using groovy script wherein we use json builders in groovy to generate the Json and then passing the json to put methods to execute the processors. NIFI Version:0.6.0 While planning to migrate to NIFI 1.0.0 and using the same groovy script we are facing a few errors in the latest version of NIFI(1.0.0): Having controller/revision in nifi.get method does not
return the response json, instead its throwing 404, verified in browser too.
This works fine in 0.6.1 Nifi version. Reference : resp = nifi.get(path: 'controller/revision') This below does not work too, since having controller
in path as a pretext to process-groups is no longer valid. It also returns a
404/bad request error.This works fine in 0.6.1 Nifi version Reference : resp = nifi.put(
path:
"controller/process-groups/$processGroup/processors/$processorId",
body: builder.toPrettyString(),
requestContentType: JSON
) PS: While trying to verify the below in browser, GET only
responds when we have structures like /process-groups/{id} or
/process-groups/{id}/processors , i.e. without controller string.This works
fine in 0.6.1 Nifi version Reference: host://port/nifi-api/process-groups/root Below syntax does not work in script either. This works fine
in 0.6.1 Nifi version
resp = nifi.put(
path: "process-groups/$processGroup/processors/$processorId",
body: builder.toPrettyString(),
requestContentType: JSON
) Since the syntax provided above works perfectly fine in 0.6.0 I would like to know if any changes are made in NIFI 1.0.0 in the rest API or in the way the various HTTP requests are passed to methods like 'get' and 'put'? I could not find any changes in the release notes or the NIFI API documentation provided in the link below: https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/rest-api/ Please let me know if you need any other information.
