# Apache NiFi
|
|
|
|
Apache NiFi is an easy to use, powerful, and reliable system to process and distribute data.

## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
- Read through the [quickstart guide for development](http://nifi.apache.org/quickstart.html).
|
|
It will include information on getting a local copy of the source, give pointers on issue
|
|
tracking, and provide some warnings about common problems with development environments.
|
|
- For a more comprehensive guide to development and information about contributing to the project
|
|
read through the [NiFi Developer's Guide](http://nifi.apache.org/developer-guide.html).
|
|
- Optional: Build supporting modules. This should only be needed if the current 'nifi' module is in
|
|
the process of updating to a new version of either the 'nifi-parent' or 'nifi-nar-maven-plugin'
|
|
artifacts.
|
|
|
|
If in doubt, just skip to building the main nifi project. If the build fails, come back here and
|
|
figure out which optional step you are missing; each entry below will give an example of the
|
|
errors you'll receive if that step needs to be followed. The version numbers may change but the
|
|
error text should still look very familiar.
|
|
- Install the nifi-parent pom. Change directory to 'nifi-parent' and follow the directions found
|
|
there in [README.md](nifi-parent/README.md).
|
|
|
|
If you don't build the nifi-parent pom and the main nifi code relies on an unreleased version
|
|
you'll see an erorr like the following:
|
|
|
|
[ERROR] Non-resolvable parent POM: Could not find artifact
|
|
org.apache.nifi:nifi-parent:pom:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT in example.snapshots.repo
|
|
(https://repository.example.com/content/repositories/snapshots) and
|
|
'parent.relativePath' points at no local POM @ line 18, column 13 -> [Help 2]
|
|
- Build the nifi-nar-maven-plugin. Change directory to 'nifi-nar-maven-plugin' and
|
|
follow the directions found there in [README.md](nifi-nar-maven-plugin/README.md).
|
|
|
|
If you don't build the nifi-nar-maven-plugin and the main nifi code relies on an unreleased
|
|
version you'll see an error like the following:
|
|
|
|
[ERROR] Unresolveable build extension: Plugin
|
|
org.apache.nifi:nifi-nar-maven-plugin:1.0.1-SNAPSHOT or one of its
|
|
dependencies could not be resolved: Could not find artifact
|
|
org.apache.nifi:nifi-nar-maven-plugin:jar:1.0.1-SNAPSHOT -> [Help 2]
|
|
- Build nifi. Change directory to 'nifi' and follow the directions found there in
|
|
[README.md](nifi/README.md).
|
|
- Run NiFi. The directions found in the [README.md](nifi/README.md) file within the 'nifi' module
|
|
will also include how to run an instance of NiFi. For help on how to build your first data flow,
|
|
see the [NiFi User Guide](http://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/user-guide.html).
