It's a miniature test flow that's meant to show the behavior if someone has
questions. I got the idea when I was reviewing the PutInfluxDb processor. On
nifi-dev, I think @joewitt mentioned that a major problem with some of these
bundles is the people who actually know a particular system might be highly
limited in the community. I think getting into a habit of sharing test flows
that use something like GenerateFlowFile could ease the learning curve on
others. Particularly if a docker-compose file or something like that is added
with it.
I can remove it, but I think it might be a good practice.
> Make GetMongo able to use flowfiles for queries

> Priority: Minor

> GetMongo should be able to retrieve a valid query from the flowfile content
> or allow the incoming flowfile to provide attributes to power EL statements
> in the Query configuration field. Allowing the body to be used would allow
> GetMongo to be used in a much more generic way.
