Oleg Zhurakousky updated NIFI-969:
----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 1.1.0
> Add option to use standard JSON or Avro-JSON to ConvertAvroToJSON
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-969
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-969
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 0.3.0
> Reporter: Ryan Blue
> Assignee: Oleg Zhurakousky
> Fix For: 1.1.0
>
>
> ConvertAvroToJSON uses {{GenericData#toString(GenericRecord)}} to convert to
> JSON. This produces
> [Avro-JSON|https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.7.7/spec.html#json_encoding], which
> probably isn't what most users want because it adds an unexpected layer for
> Avro union types:
> bq. the union schema {{["null","string",...]}} ... would encode: the string
> {{"a"}} as {{{"string": "a"}}} ...
> It would be good to have a conversion that doesn't add those layers as an
> option.
