-----------------------------------
Summary: Add GenerateFakeRecord processor
Key: NIFI-10585
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-10585
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Extensions
Reporter: Matt Burgess
Similar to NIFI-5084, this Jira proposes a GenerateFakeRecord processor to
generate dummy data into outgoing FlowFiles. There was a PR and plenty of
discussion in NIFI-5084, so this Jira is separate to outline the different
approach and not make the original Jira "noisy".
This processor could use the Java port of Faker to generate dummy data. Two
"modes" could be supported: 1) User-defined properties could specify various
field types supported by Faker, such as Country Code, University, Future Date,
etc. and 2) more generic dummy data (still provided by Faker) to populate a
given Avro schema, in order to support nested and pre-existing structures.
