It's a bummer we need an additional property here to specify where the
query is coming from; seems to me that's only because you can leave Query blank
and it means something. In other processors like ExecuteSQL, you either provide
a Query in the property (and it is used), or you leave it blank and then it is
expected that the body of the incoming flow file contains the query.
What is the behavior when Query is filled in but the Query Location is
Body? Will Query Parameter be ignored or should the processor be marked
invalid? It looks from the doc that it will be ignored, but I wonder if the
description below should add something like
> If 'body' is selected, it will come from the flowfile instead of the
query parameter, whether the query parameter is set or not
That might just be me though, if it seems clear as written then I'm ok
> Make GetMongo able to use flowfiles for queries

> GetMongo should be able to retrieve a valid query from the flowfile content
> or allow the incoming flowfile to provide attributes to power EL statements
> in the Query configuration field. Allowing the body to be used would allow
> GetMongo to be used in a much more generic way.
