Interface NarProvider

Deprecated.

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.

@Deprecated
public interface NarProvider

Represents an external source where the NAR files might be acquired from. Used by the NAR auto loader functionality in order to poll an external source for new NAR files to load.
