David Handermann resolved NIFI-5683.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
ListenBeats can be configured to write out a set number of messages per
FlowFile based on hte Max Batch Size property. The Beats protocol sends
messages as JSON, and the ListenBeats configuration writes multiple messages
separated using a configurable delimiter. This approach preserves the original
JSON format of Beats messages, without requiring additional JSON parsing.
Introducing a Record Writer would also require parsing JSON messages to NiFi
Records, incurring additional processing overhead. FlowFiles that ListenBeats
produces can be converted or handled using other record-oriented Processors
with the standard JsonTreeReader, so it seems best to avoid introducing a
configurable Record Writer to ListenBeats.
