-----------------------------
Summary: File filter options
Key: NIFI-1988
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1988
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Extensions
Affects Versions: 0.6.1
Environment: Windows
Reporter: Raymond
Priority: Minor
File Filter on the GetFile processor accepts a regular expression (Java Regex).
As not all developers use Java/Regex it would nice to give other file filter
options as well, like filename exact, contains, prefix and suffix.
For example the file "helloworld.txt" would be picked up if:
filename_exact --> helloworld.txt
filename_contains --> helloworld.txt, ello, d.txt
filename_prefix --> hello, helloworld
filename_suffix --> .txt, txt, world.txt
I don't know if this is current possible, but it would be nice to add this as a
combobox on top of the value field (regex, exact, contains, prefix, suffix).
Underneath the filter could still be a regular expression (if other filters
would slow down the pick up process).
