Install Optional Components

Many IDOL features are available through NiFi Ingest. The following components are not included in the NiFi Ingest distribution but can be installed separately.

IMPORTANT: The .nar files supplied with IDOL components are platform dependent. For example, if you run IDOL NiFi Ingest on Linux, obtain the File System Connector .nar file from the File System Connector package for Linux.

IMPORTANT: Optional components depend on the NiFi Ingest framework. Before adding any optional components, ensure that you have installed the NiFi Ingest framework, as described in Install NiFi Ingest. The version numbers of the NiFi Ingest framework and optional components must match. If necessary, you can install several different versions of the NiFi Ingest framework.

To install optional components

  1. Stop NiFi, if it is running.
  2. Add the *.nar files for the optional components to the following location, where InstallDir represents your Apache NiFi installation directory:

    • Apache NiFi 1.9.0 or later

      InstallDir/extensions/

    • Apache NiFi 1.7.x or 1.8.0

      InstallDir/lib/

  3. Start NiFi.
