---------------------------------
Summary: Would like InferAvroSchema and ConvertCSVToAvro to handle
numbers better
Key: NIFI-2842
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2842
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: David Hicks
Assume the following CSV:
field1,field2
10,17
7,18.4
InferAvroSchema will parse both as an integer field, but ConvertCSVtoAvro will
explode when trying to convert the second line, because it's a float. One
recommendation would be to allow the user to specify multiple lines and choose
the least restrictive one. If it parses a field as an integer and then a
double, the double will override the integer.
