[jira] [Created] (NIFI-11785) Allow passing environment variables in install script

Sander Bylemans created NIFI-11785:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow passing environment variables in install script
                 Key: NIFI-11785
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-11785
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Configuration
    Affects Versions: 1.22.0
            Reporter: Sander Bylemans


In order to connect to an SFTP, we included configuration of that in a file with environment variables for the VM that runs nifi. We use scripts to configure the vm, and these scripts source that file.

I know we can access environment variables in nifi using EL, but we don't have a way to pass these environment variables to the service definition. There should be an option in the `nifi.sh install `command, something like `nifi.sh install -e URL=https://example.com` which then includes this env var in the service definition.
