Raymond created NIFI-1988: ----------------------------- Summary: File filter options Key: NIFI-1988 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1988 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: Wish Components: Extensions Affects Versions: 0.6.1 Environment: Windows Reporter: Raymond Priority: Minor
File Filter on the GetFile processor accepts a regular expression (Java Regex). As not all developers use Java/Regex it would nice to give other file filter options as well, like filename exact, contains, prefix and suffix. For example the file "helloworld.txt" would be picked up if: filename_exact --> helloworld.txt filename_contains --> helloworld.txt, ello, d.txt filename_prefix --> hello, helloworld filename_suffix --> .txt, txt, world.txt I don't know if this is current possible, but it would be nice to add this as a combobox on top of the value field (regex, exact, contains, prefix, suffix). Underneath the filter could still be a regular expression (if other filters would slow down the pick up process). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
