THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
In this article we'll discuss how to customize your MiNiFI C++ builds to accommodate your environment. Extensions within MiNiFI C++ allow you to specify, through CMAKE, options. We'll go through the current set and update this how to as extensions are added.
Current Extensions
HTTP-CURL
| Extension Name | Description | CMAKE Option |
|---|---|---|
| HTTP-CURL | Enables libcURL builds, thus supporting HTTP operations | -DDISABLE_CURL=TRUE |
| ROCKSDB | Enables ROCKSDB to build providing provenance, flowfile, and DBContent repositories. *Note that if disabled, only volatile repositories will be allowed | -DDISABLE_ROCKSDB=TRUE |
| LIBARCHIVE | Provides archive processors including MergeContent and CompressContent. | -DDISABLE_LIBARCHIVE=TRUE |
| SCRIPTING | Enables Execute script with python and LUA | -DDISABLE_SCRIPTING=TRUE |
Step-by-step guide
When building you may use the following steps
...
- e.g. user $ cmake -DDISABLE_CURL=TRUE -DDISABLE_ROCKSDB=TRUE -DDISABLE_LIBARCHIVE=TRUE ..

An added feature for 0.4.0 is the bootstrap process, which can be used to bootstrap a machine using an interactive GUI. The bootstrap script is located in the root of the minifi source tree. Simply run ./bootstrap.sh. It will install dependencies and enable you to select your extensions. Please visit https://github.com/apache/nifi-minifi-cpp/#bootstrapping to obtain additional information.
A Note about running
Disabling extensions allows us to minimize code and functionality within a binary. This may make it smaller or eliminate code that is not desired on a specific platform. Note that in doing so you change the profile of your executable. If your configuration identifies a component or processor that does not exist within your binary we will exit with a log statement indicating that it cannot be found.

Enabling all extensions
You may enable all extensions that can run on your platform by using -DENABLE_ALL=true in your command line cmake. You may also select all options via the bootstrap process.
