right now I'm using nifi and its processors for some streaming stuff (mqtt listener, json evaluating, text replacement, write into db ...). I'm trying to persist the flowfiles and therefore I did some volume mapping (see below). But it doesn't work; after restarting the container it seems the flowfiles arent't saved ...
Could anybody give me a hint how to solve that problem?
nifi:
image: apache/nifi
restart: on-failure
ports:
- "8000:8000"
networks:
- traefik
environment:
- NIFI_WEB_HTTP_PORT=8000
volumes:
- nifi_conf:/opt/nifi/conf
- nifi_state:/data/nifi/state
- nifi_db:/opt/nifi/database_repository
- nifi_flowfile:/opt/nifi/flowfile_repository
- nifi_content:/opt/nifi/content_repository
- nifi_provenance:/opt/nifi/provenance_repository
volumes:
nifi_provenance:{}
nifi_flowfile: {}
nifi_content: {}
nifi_db: {}
nifi_state: {}
nifi_conf: {}
Thanks.
you could map docker container folders directly to the host machine like this:
services:
nifi:
...
volumes:
- ./conf:/opt/conf
- ./nifi_state:/data/nifi/state
...
no additional volume definition required
note that under windows with virtualbox this feature works only in the current user directory.
