------------------------------------

             Summary: NIFI CLI create-reg-client should be capable of handling GitHubFlowRegistryClient
                 Key: NIFI-13679
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-13679
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
         Environment: Official Docker Images 2.0.0-M4 (NiFi, NiFi Registry, NiFi Toolkit) running on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS and Docker v27.0.3
            Reporter: Julien Ledoux


This ticket concerns the {{bin/cli.sh nifi create-reg-client}} and {{update-reg-client}} commands.

While attempting to automate the provisioning of NifiRegistryFlowRegistryClient(s) and GitHubFlowRegistryClient(s), I noticed that the available options in the NiFi CLI do not fully support the necessary configurations for GitHub.

I tried using the {{--properties}} option to see if I could create a {{GitHubFlowRegistryClient}} this way. While it is possible to change the registry client type to {{{}GitHubFlowRegistryClient{}}}, the CLI doesn't allow configuring all the specific properties—only those it shares with {{{}NifiRegistryFlowRegistryClient{}}}.

It would be highly beneficial to have the ability to manage this type of registry client in the same way as {{{}NifiRegistryFlowRegistryClient{}}}.

It seems that the DTO object does support all the GitHub-specific properties, but the command currently only passes four properties to the DTO: name, description, type, and URL.
