This section describes how to configure an IDOL Connector to send data to an Apache NiFi input port.
To configure an IDOL Connector
In the [Ingestion]
section set the following parameters.
IngesterType
|
The type of ingestion process. Set this parameter to NiFi . |
IngestHost
|
The host name or IP address of the NiFi instance. |
IngestPort
|
The port of the NiFi instance. |
IngestNiFiInputPort
|
The NiFi input port ID. |
IngestNiFiApiUrl
|
(Optional) The base URL of the NiFi REST API. You only need to set this parameter if you have configured NiFi to use a URL other than the standard (host:port/nifi-api/ ). |
IngestNiFiUseSSL
|
(Optional) A Boolean parameter that specifies whether to use SSL/TLS when sending documents to NiFi. When this parameter is TRUE you must also set the parameter SSLMethod . |
IngestNiFiStreamFiles
|
(Optional) A Boolean value that specifies whether to stream files (document content) to NiFi. If you set this parameter to FALSE , the connector sends a much smaller amount of data to NiFi, which can increase performance. NiFi processors must then retrieve the files from the connector machine (or the shared path when IngestSharedPath is set). |
For example:
[Ingestion] IngesterType=NiFi IngestHost=nifi-host1 IngestPort=8080 IngestNiFiInputPort=1639849e-0163-1000-8654-706cd4d6970d // Set the following parameters only if you have // configured SSL for your NiFi instance // IngestNiFiUseSSL=TRUE // SSLMethod=Negotiate
