Bryan Bende updated NIFI-1973:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 0.7.0
> Allow ExecuteSQL to use flow file content as SQL query
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-1973
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1973
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Matt Burgess
> Assignee: Matt Burgess
> Fix For: 1.0.0, 0.7.0
>
>
> Currently the SQL SELECT query used by ExecuteSQL is specified by a required
> processor property. This property does accept Expression Language (EL), so it
> is possible if the query is in the flow file contents, that an ExtractText
> processor could be used to put the query in an attribute, then the Select
> Query property in ExecuteSQL could reference the attribute using Expression
> Language.
> However that seems like an unnecessary extra step, especially when users have
> data flows that generate SQL statements, or when their flow accepts files
> containing SQL statements.
> An improvement to the ExecuteSQL processor could be to make the Select Query
> property not required, and if it is empty, the contents of the flow file will
> be used as the query value.
