[jira] [Commented] (MINIFI-133) Remote input/output port support

["Bryan Rosander (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MINIFI-133?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15783141#comment-15783141 ] 

Bryan Rosander commented on MINIFI-133:
---------------------------------------

After looking into this, we would need to spin up a minimal s2s rest api in order for other (Mi)NiFi instances to be able to talk to the ports.  This adds nontrivial overhead in MiNiFi and isn't justified without a clear usecase.

My work in progress branch is at https://github.com/brosander/nifi-minifi/tree/MINIFI-133 if there is value seen in this feature at a later date.

It would be nice to be able to encapsulate this functionality in a nar so the user only bears the overhead if they need the functionality.

> As part of the work for MINIFI-107, we are enabling Input/Output ports for use with Process Groups.
> It shouldn't be much more effort to allow for their use at the top level for Input/Output to remote NiFi instances as well.
