`deploy_flow_version` with `version=None` does not deploy the latest version

[knguyen1]

• Nipyapi version: 0.19.1
• NiFi version: 1.20.0
• NiFi-Registry version: 1.20.0
• Python version: 3.8
• Operating System: Linux

Description

Deploy a flow's latest version to a nifi instance that doesn't have the PG (first deploy).

Line 750 of versioning.py:

target_flow = target_flow[0].versioned_flow_snapshot_metadata

assumes that the returned flows are sorted descending with the latest version at index 0. This is not the case.

A better implementation would be (line 738):

target_flow = sorted(flow_versions.versioned_flow_snapshot_metadata_set, key=lambda x: x.versioned_flow_snapshot_metadata.version, reverse=True)

What I Did

nipyapi.versioning.deploy_flow_version(
        process_group_id, (0, 0), bucket_id, flow_id, registry_id
    )

Urgency

Not urgent
