[jira] [Commented] (NIFI-154) Readlink not supported on OS X

----------------------------------
Jake
First thanks so much for contributing and providing a patch. We've had quite a few MacOS users commenting thus far so this could be really helpful. I've confirmed it still works with linux. Can you please check it out on your end?
Thanks

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-145
That is the ticket which the boostrap work is under. Though it is lacking
in the overall context in which we need though contributions.
The bottom line is that we need to make it easy for folks to install nifi
as a service or simply a stand alone app on a variety of platforms. One
possible approach which has promise is this bootstrap concept. Research I
(and Tony) have done of what appears to be common/typical did not leave me
feeling like we had a strong solution just yet which would give a good user
experience. The bootstrap idea Mark is working sounds interesting though.
The ticket should be updated further to reflect the problem space and
thinking more though to invite collaboration.
Thanks
Joe

Joe,
is there already a jira tracking the need for a service wrapper?

Jake
Certainly. We used what was a very solid service wrapper previously that
is not compatible with Apache. So now we're sort of feeling our way
through how best to tackle this. It is our intent that folks on most OS's
the the JVM supports can fire up NiFi and do good things including full
legit service integration.
It will take us time to get there and if there are folks in the community
with good ideas around how best to do this in Java land we really need your
help!
Thanks
Joe

Thanks for applying that Joe,
I just fetched the latest dev branch and it is all working nicely for me. There does seem to also be some rapid development within bootstrap branch that looks promising - I might have a look into that more tonight and also see about some of the other anomalies that OS X is creating [this is the first time I have see/used nifi on a mac - but its a nice change].
Thanks again and I look forward to helping out and contributing back where I can.
Cheers,
Jake
