Joseph Witt updated NIFI-1938:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.0.0)
> Investigate renaming replace expression language method
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-1938
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1938
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core Framework
> Affects Versions: 0.6.1
> Reporter: Andy LoPresto
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: expression-language
>
> As explored in NIFI-1919, the expression language string replacement methods
> could be more clearly named to differentiate their actions -- the difference
> between {{replace}} and {{replaceAll}} is not their frequency of operation,
> but rather that {{replace}} accepts only literal strings, while
> {{replaceAll}} interprets the provided search pattern as a regular
> expression.
> Related, the {{ReplaceEvaluator}}, {{ReplaceAllEvaluator}}, and new
> {{ReplaceFirstEvaluator}} classes differ only by one line for each respective
> operation. It may be possible to refactor this to remove duplicate code.
