[jira] [Created] (NIFI-6499) Add variables on templates

Raymond created NIFI-6499:
-----------------------------

             Summary: Add variables on templates
                 Key: NIFI-6499
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6499
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core Framework
            Reporter: Raymond


I would like to set variables on creating a template. Currently, a template is copy. On some parameters I would like to set as variable (or part of the parameter value as variable).

On instantiating the template the variables are set by the user. After instantiation the variables are fixed text. So the variables are not runtime variables, by only designtime variables (similar to Maven archetypes).

Now I do it like this.

1) Set parameters/values like this: ${variableName}

2) Export the template

3) Search ${variableName} and replace by new value

4) Import the template

Maybe this could be part of "[https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NIFI/Better+Support+for+Parameterizing+Flows]", but that seems to focus on runtime.
