             Summary: Deprecate FlowFile Version 1 and Version 2 Packaging for 
Removal
                 Key: NIFI-16186
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-16186
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: David Handermann
            Assignee: David Handermann


The historical FlowFile Version 1 and Version 2 packaging formats should be 
deprecated for removal in subsequent releases.

FlowFlow Version 1 packaging builds on the TAR archive structure, packaging 
FlowFile attributes as an XML file entry. FlowFlow Version 2 packaging uses a 
binary length and value strategy. Both of these formats should not be used in 
general configuration design, as FlowFile Version 3 packaging provides the most 
current strategy.

Direct references to the Packager and Unpackager classes are limited to the 
MergeContent, UnpackContent, and ListenHTTP Processors. Deprecation warnings 
should be included in these components for tracking visibility.
