[jira] [Commented] (NIFIREG-211) Add extension bundles as a type of versioned item

["Otto Fowler (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFIREG-211?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16688152#comment-16688152 ] 

Otto Fowler commented on NIFIREG-211:
-------------------------------------

Would it be possible to have a repository entry for a bundle that was 'only' metadata and a download link?  Like a lazy resolvable download?  That way a repository could be fully populated, and easily synced, with only the used bundles actually downloaded.

> This ticket is to capture the work for adding extension bundles to NiFi Registry.
> This work may require several follow on tickets, but at a high-level will include some of the following:
> - Add a new type of item called an extension bundle, where each bundle
>  can contain one ore extensions or APIs
>  
>  - Support bundles for traditional NiFi (aka NARs) and also bundles for
>  MiNiFi CPP
>  
>  - Ability to upload the binary artifact for a bundle and extract the
>  metadata about the bundle, and metadata about the extensions contained
>  in the bundle (more on this later)
>  
>  - Provide a pluggable storage provider for saving the content of each
>  extension bundle so that we can have different implementations like
>  local fileysystem, S3, and other object stores
>  
>  - Provide a REST API for listing and retrieving available bundles,
>  integrate this into the registry Java client and NiFi CLI
> - Security considerations such as checksums and cryptographic signatures for bundles
