Description

In NiFi, we have

nifi.nar.library.autoload.directory=./extensions

This directory is where NiFi would be looking for automatically loading NARs without the need for a restart of the service. It would be comfortable in multiple environments to support loading NARs from object stores, like HDFS.

In this story I am willing to extend autoload with this capability and provide HDFS support for it.
