Joseph Witt commented on NIFI-1139: ----------------------------------- Fair point. > logAttribute processor output incorrectly identifies FlowFile properties as > FlowFile attributes. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: NIFI-1139 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1139 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Matthew Clarke > Assignee: Oleg Zhurakousky > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.4.0 > > > There are certain pieces of a FlowFile that are not attributes (entryDate, > lineageDate, and fileSize); howwver, the output from a logAttribute processor > identifies them as FlowFile attributes. These items should be labeled as > FlowFile properties. > -------------------------------------------------- > Standard FlowFile Attributes > Key: 'entryDate' > Value: 'Tue Nov 10 09:02:01 EST 2015' > Key: 'lineageStartDate' > Value: 'Tue Nov 10 09:02:01 EST 2015' > Key: 'fileSize' > Value: '10240' > FlowFile Attribute Map Content > Key: 'divideby3' > Value: '-7' > Key: 'divideby5' > ..... > ---------------------------------------------------------- > Need to change the output wording: > "Standard FlowFile Attributes" should be "Standard FlowFile Properties" > I also think uuid should be included under this section. > We want to avoid confusion for the users. All Attributes are stored as > strings. Properties are not attributes and are not stored as strings. That > distinction directly correlates to how the expression language can interact > with these values. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
