----------------------------------
Summary: HBase List LookupService
Key: NIFI-5980
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5980
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Mike Thomsen
Assignee: Mike Thomsen
The existing lookup service is designed to return records. This makes it
unsuitable for cases where someone wants to pull out a list of keys or values
from the returned row and inject that into the record.
For example, someone looking to add a list of roles to a record for downstream
security constraints somewhere might store a lookup in HBase between the data
item and its roles. Stored like this:
<data_item_key>:security:role_admin = 1
<data_item_key>:security:role_auditor = 1
When the flow does a lookup on the item, ex. during a reingest event, these
fields could be pulled out of HBase and inserted as a List<String> into the
record.
