Pierre Villard created NIFI-3790:
------------------------------------
Summary: Expression language auto-completion to add parenthesis
Key: NIFI-3790
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3790
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core UI
Reporter: Pierre Villard
Priority: Minor
When using auto completion with expression language it will add the function
name based on the available list of functions. It would be nice if, when the
function is added, parenthesis are also added at the end of the function name.
Instead of having
{code}
${now}
{code}
and manually adding the parenthesis, directly have:
{code}
${now()}
{code}
Had a quick look at {{nfel.js}} and not sure if this can easily be done (I
tried to add the parenthesis in line 838 but it impacts some other parts of the
code and will show parenthesis in the tool tip). It looks like it would be
easier to upgrade {{codemirror}} code to be able to use {{hint}} function as
explained here: https://codemirror.net/doc/manual.html#addon_show-hint
I'll let UI gurus give their thoughts.
