Mark Bean updated NIFI-14141:
-----------------------------
Description:
GenerateFlowFile allows the specification of s fixed size for all FlowFiles.
Add properties to allow for a minimum and maximum FlowFile size. Each generated
FlowFile will be a random size within this range.
The use case is to have FlowFiles of various sizes injected into a flow for
further testing. Some flows are specifically designed to handle FlowFiles of
certain sizes differently. For example, if files are "large", perhaps they are
compressed. This is a trivial example, but the point is this feature supports a
greater degree of flexibility of data while testing a flow.
