Getting Started

Install MarkLogic

Follow the Installation Guide found on the MarkLogic Documentation site. If you are familiar with the MarkLogic install process you can find the installation files here or you can use an existing MarkLogic installation.

Install NiFi

For detailed instructions on the installation process see Apache NiFi: Getting Started.

Download the latest binary package from NiFi’s Download page and uncompress the file to the desired location.

Install MarkLogic NiFi Connector

The connector consists of two NAR (Nifi ARchive) files. The files for a particular release of the connector can be obtained from the marklogic-nifi GitHub repository. Choose a release, and then download and copy these two files to the <NIFI_HOME>/lib directory in your NiFi installation. Note that if you installed NiFi via Homebrew on a Mac, the NAR files should instead be copied into the <NIFI_HOME>/libexec/lib directory in your NiFi installation.

Start NiFi

On Windows, run the bin/run-nifi.bat file. On Mac/*nix systems, run from the terminal sh bin/nifi.sh start. If you installed NiFi via Homebrew on a Mac, run from the terminal bin/nifi start
