@eorgad First, thank you for your contribution. This is definitely
something people had asked for.
Now, . . . . I see that you added it to the standard processors. What I
would suggest is to make it a separate bundle in 'nifi-nar-bundles'. Basically
we are at the point where we are trying to be cognizant of a NiFi size and do
not put anything new into standard processors. So it has to be a separate
bundle. And while we are in the early stages of Extension Registry discussion,
having separate bundles, would still (even today) allow anyone to add/remove
what they don't want in NiFI while with the current approach you've taken it
won't be easy to do.
Let us know if you need more guidance, but I would also suggest to look
into any bundle in 'nifi-nar-bundles' as an example.
