This is a guide to start apache NiFi as docker machine.
We can use aktechthoughts/nifi-docker repository to start a NiFi cluster.
STEP I : Clone the repository
STEP II: Execute the script build.sh
The script pulls the images and runs the zookeepr and the nifi on local machine.
The nifi is exposed at port : 8888, we can look at the browser using http://0.0.0.0:8888/nifi/
This is a blank canvas. we can add some process group and use the service.
The template – SEND_REMOTE_DATA is imported and used.
This is a insecure cluster. We can create a secure cluster using repository https://github.com/aktechthoughts/nifi-cluster
