Add support for Apache Ranger authorizer #440

Open Jimvin opened 1 year ago

Jimvin commented 1 year ago

Users wishing to use an existing Apache Ranger for authorization in NiFi should be able to configure this. It requires that the Ranger NAR file is loaded into the NiFi lib directory and that the configuration outlined in the following link is applied to the NiFi instance - https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/RANGER/NiFi+Plugin

This feature request can likely be closed if we can offer;

  1. an alternative means of authorisation, either internal NiFi authorisation or using OPA
  2. the ability to log audit events from NiFi (see https://github.com/stackabletech/nifi-operator/issues/515)
