---------------------------------
Summary: ReplaceText does not always evaluate Search Value EL
against flow file
Key: NIFI-4417
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4417
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.3.0, 1.2.0, 1.1.0, 1.0.0
Reporter: Bryan Bende
When using the regex replacement strategy with expression language for the
Search Value, there are two places where the expression language is evaluated...
Once to obtain the number of capturing groups which doesn't use the current
flow file:
https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-standard-bundle/nifi-standard-processors/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/processors/standard/ReplaceText.java#L509
Then later to perform the actual search, which does use the current flow file:
https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-standard-bundle/nifi-standard-processors/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/processors/standard/ReplaceText.java#L522
Seems like these would need to be in sync. This may be related to NIFI-4272.
