@gresockj thanks for the pr! I started digging in, and I think the
discussion on where this goes (which I added to the ticket) probably should
have gone on a little longer (no fault of yours, I'm glad you took the
initiative and put the code together). I could be wrong, but I think @bbende
was more discussing in abstract terms. I have to admit, the abstract processor
feels a little bit out of place in nifi-processor-utils, but I don't have a
good answer for where general purpose abstract processors should be! I think
@joewitt may have been suggesting a new module like
nifi-commons/nifi-abstract-processors/<abstract processor>?
Secondly, I think rather than a move, deprecating the one in
:nifi-standard-processors and making a copy of the classes to the new location
would be appropriate for 0.5.0. I'm pretty sure this would constitute a
breaking change as-is.
