• Type: Improvement

Description

Currently the Dockerhub Dockerfile will pull binaries from https://archive.apache.org by default. It's preferable to pull these from a mirror when available.

The Dockerfile should use https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/nifi/${NIFI_VERSION}/nifi-${NIFI_VERSION}-bin.zip}?as_json and the returned 'in_dist' and 'preferred' properties to determine the best mirror for the MIRROR_BASE_URL.
