Francois, very nice. Thanks.
I have been working on a simple version a while ago. But it had another scope: I wnated to have a Nifi processor to merge CSV data with a template from a template engine (e.g. Apache Velocity). I will review my code and have a look at your processor. Where can we get it? Github? Rgds, Uwe > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 19.
