NIFI-12038 This closes #7760. introduce PackageFlowFile processor
Signed-off-by: Joseph Witt <[email protected]>
> Create processor to package FlowFiles
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-12038
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-12038
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Extensions
> Reporter: Michael W Moser
> Assignee: Michael W Moser
> Priority: Minor
> Time Spent: 1h 40m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> h4. Design Goals
> Provide a simple way to package FlowFile attributes and content into
> FlowFileV3 format that can be exported from NiFi and reimported later.
> MergeContent can do this, but it is not intuitive that it has this
> capability, and it can be complicated to setup perfectly.
> h4. Use Cases
> * Package FlowFile for external (off-NiFi) storage, for later ingest back
> into NiFi using an ingress processor followed by UnpackContent
> * Package FlowFile for NiFi-to-NiFi transfer when a direct connection is not
> possible, or another transfer mechanism is required
> * Package FlowFile then InvokeHTTP directly to another NiFi running
> ListenHTTP, which can natively unpack FlowFileV3 format
> h4. Other Ideas
> * Offer best-effort, no guarantee N FlowFiles to 1 bundling
> * Create new FlowFile serialization format to support interoperability with
> non-NiFi services, such as core operating system tools
