-----------------------------------------------------------
The issue is essentially caused by that the dependent jackson-databind.jar's
ObjectReader has different ways to handle ”null“ string and other non-json
format data such as "aaa", and "null" strings are resolved to null and other
non-json format strings throw parse exception.
The name ”ObjectReader“ seems to be right in this way, but in nifi the
flowfile can not be processed in the queue until the queue is emptied rather
than faliure route is definitely problematic.
And I fix it locally by adding once read from flowfile and judging whether
the content is "null" string, but I dont think it is a good way and wonder if
there is a better way to deal with it.
