Mark Payne commented on NIFI-7792:
----------------------------------

Hi [~Moosheimer]. There does exist in the nifi-utils method a StreamUtils class 
that allows for copying from an InputStream to an OutputStream: 
{code}StreamUtils.copy(in, out);{code}
If the intent is purely to create a FlowFile whose contents are those in an 
InputStream, that method already exists on ProcessSession as well:
{code}
FlowFile importFrom(InputStream source, FlowFile destination);
{code}


> Support inputstream for session.write

>
> When writing flowfile content with 
>  flowFile = *session.write*(flowFile, out -> \{...}
>  only a byte array can be used.
>  It would be an improvement if you could provide an InputStream too.
> So one would not have to do the copying oneself and insert possible errors.
> while ((length = in.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length)) != -1)
> { out.write(buffer, 0, length); }
