Deprecated Interfaces

Interface and Description
org.apache.nifi.nar.NarProvider org.apache.nifi.flow.resource.ExternalResourceProvider replaces this interface. External resource as concept includes NARs from external sources but not limited to them. In order to have greater flexibility, the focus of future implementations and improvements is suggested to be on the external resource approach. Existing implementations at the point of introducing external resource concept support both interface families for compatibility reasons.
org.apache.nifi.nar.NarProviderInitializationContext org.apache.nifi.flow.resource.ExternalResourceProviderInitializationContext replaces this interface. External resource as concept includes NARs from external sources but not limited to them. In order to have greater flexibility, the focus of future implementations and improvements is suggested to be on the external resource approach. Existing implementations at the point of introducing external resource concept support both interface families for compatibility reasons.

Deprecated Fields

Field and Description
org.apache.nifi.components.PropertyDescriptor.expressionLanguageSupported
org.apache.nifi.components.PropertyDescriptor.Builder.expressionLanguageSupported
org.apache.nifi.flow.VersionedFlowRegistryClient.id
org.apache.nifi.flow.VersionedFlowRegistryClient.url

Deprecated Methods

Method and Description
org.apache.nifi.logging.ComponentLog.debug(String, Object[], Throwable)
org.apache.nifi.processor.ProcessContext.decrypt(String) Processors should not depend on framework encryption operations
org.apache.nifi.processor.ProcessContext.encrypt(String) Processors should not depend on framework encryption operations
org.apache.nifi.logging.ComponentLog.error(String, Object[], Throwable)
org.apache.nifi.components.PropertyDescriptor.Builder.expressionLanguageSupported(boolean)
org.apache.nifi.flow.VersionedFlowRegistryClient.getId() use VersionedComponent.getIdentifier() instead.
org.apache.nifi.flow.VersionedFlowCoordinates.getRegistryUrl()
org.apache.nifi.flow.VersionedRemoteProcessGroup.getTargetUri()
org.apache.nifi.flow.VersionedFlowRegistryClient.getUrl()
org.apache.nifi.components.state.StateMap.getVersion()
org.apache.nifi.logging.ComponentLog.info(String, Object[], Throwable)
org.apache.nifi.logging.ComponentLog.log(LogLevel, String, Object[], Throwable)
org.apache.nifi.processor.ProcessSession.read(FlowFile, boolean, InputStreamCallback) Restricting the ProcessSession's ability to manage its own streams should not be used. The need for this capability was obviated by the introduction of the ProcessSession.migrate(ProcessSession, Collection) and ProcessSession.migrate(ProcessSession) methods.
org.apache.nifi.flow.VersionedFlowCoordinates.setRegistryUrl(String)
org.apache.nifi.flow.VersionedFlowRegistryClient.setUrl(String)
org.apache.nifi.logging.ComponentLog.trace(String, Object[], Throwable)
org.apache.nifi.logging.ComponentLog.warn(String, Object[], Throwable)
