----------------------------------
Summary: Add the ability to utilize aliases in Avro to Avro record
conversion
Key: NIFI-4880
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4880
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 1.5.0
Reporter: Derek Straka
Currently, the Avro to Avro conversions will ignore fields that are not mapped
verbatim. In avro schemas, it is possible for fields to be aliased to one
another. It would be useful if a 1:1 mapping was not available, the aliases
for the field were searched to locate a prospective value and then add the
default.
The functionality can be accomplished by adding some logic to
AvroTypeUtil::createAvroRecord.
