David Hicks created NIFI-2842: --------------------------------- Summary: Would like InferAvroSchema and ConvertCSVToAvro to handle numbers better Key: NIFI-2842 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2842 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: New Feature Reporter: David Hicks
Assume the following CSV: field1,field2 10,17 7,18.4 InferAvroSchema will parse both as an integer field, but ConvertCSVtoAvro will explode when trying to convert the second line, because it's a float. One recommendation would be to allow the user to specify multiple lines and choose the least restrictive one. If it parses a field as an integer and then a double, the double will override the integer. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
