It's not than simple, Hanif. There are several different nickel plating solutions including sulfamate nickel (usually for engineering purposes) and bright Watts nickel (for decorative purposes). General composition is in any of the "must have" plating books, but the addition agents are generally proprietary and may involve synthesis from precursors, not mere mixing of ingredients.
