Joseph Percivall updated MINIFI-1:
----------------------------------
    Comment: was deleted

(was: For the initial proof of concept (MINIFI-5), the underlying framework should re-use the  nifi.properties and flow.xml* for configuration but we should offer a more use friendly config file to be able to set all the pertinent properties. My idea is to have "config.yml" that outlines all the properties for configuring and starting up NiFi with a ConfigTransformer that is called by bootstrap.java (or other startup class), takes in the config.yml and writes out the flow.xml and nifi.properties.

I suggested a Yaml file because it is very user friendly and has very good libraries to use.

* I did not include bootstrap.conf because all the configuration in there is necessary to start the JVM which, in my view, is outside the scope something a user would regularly set.)
