Oleg Zhurakousky updated NIFI-969: ---------------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > Add option to use standard JSON or Avro-JSON to ConvertAvroToJSON > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-969 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-969 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Extensions > Affects Versions: 0.3.0 > Reporter: Ryan Blue > Assignee: Oleg Zhurakousky > > ConvertAvroToJSON uses {{GenericData#toString(GenericRecord)}} to convert to > JSON. This produces > [Avro-JSON|https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.7.7/spec.html#json_encoding], which > probably isn't what most users want because it adds an unexpected layer for > Avro union types: > bq. the union schema {{["null","string",...]}} ... would encode: the string > {{"a"}} as {{{"string": "a"}}} ... > It would be good to have a conversion that doesn't add those layers as an > option. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
