# Prerequisites:- 

docker desktop 

Apache Nifi comes to mind if you are looking for a simple, but robust, tool to process data from various sources. 
In short, Apache NiFi is a tool to process and distribute data. Its intuitive UI supports routing definitions, a variety of connectors  (in/out), and many built-in processors. All these features combined together make it a suitable optional platform for our use case.

# Step -1: Pull docker Image

```
docker pull apache/nifi:latest
```

# Step 2: Create a container

Name my container (I named it devnifi)
Controlling the port, and mapped to 8443
Being able to see the loading and standard output of Nifi
Create a shared volume between my host (shared-directory) and the container (ls-target)

```
docker run --name devnifi -p 8443:8443 -e NIFI_WEB_HTTPS_PORT='8443' -d apache/nifi:latest
```

# Step 3: Verify using logs

```
docker logs -f devnifi
```

# Step 4: Pull Nifi registry and create a container 

```
docker pull apache/nifi-registry
```
then run the registry which manages version control for Nifi flow.

```
docker run --name nifi-registry -p 18080:18080 -d apache/nifi-registry
```

# Step 5: Validation

visit [https://localhost:8443/nifi](Link)
     [http://localhost:18080/nifi-registry](Link)

 ```
docker inspect devnifi --format='{{.NetworkSettings.Networks.bridge.Gateway}}'
```

# Conclusion:

This is just a three-step process to run any container, pull the image, run the container, and verify.
