Daniel Stieglitz updated NIFI-12709:
------------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: In Progress)
> UnpackContent should save attributes from the zip entries as flowfile
> attributes where possible
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-12709
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-12709
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Joe Witt
> Assignee: Daniel Stieglitz
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> In an email from Jan 31st to users list titled 'ExecuteStreamCommand failing
> to unzip incoming flowfiles'
> Issue is that UnpackContent doesn't capture much useful metadata. The user
> wants last modified date which is easily available, but also creator,
> creation time, and owner which are less obviously avaialble at least not
> consistently. But there is a concept of extra fields we can extract metadata
> from. We have those same fields available from Tar files so it is natural
> users would also want these. Given their names aren't standard though I see
> why Tar is the only one we currently say we support pulling those for. If we
> at least captured the metadata then flow builders can use it in their flows
> as they wish whereas right now we dont expose that information.
