Pierre Villard commented on NIFI-6966:
--------------------------------------
I've a PR ready to allow null values for quote and escape characters but that
would mean removing the default values from the configuration. It's probably ok
since the properties are only used when using custom format anyway...
> CSVReader Should Support Null Quote and Escape Character

> The CSVReader doesn't currently provide a way to set null for the quote and
> escape characters. This is needed if your processing data with a single
> delimiter like a tab but the data may contain quotes and slashes and such.
> While you can set the quote and delimiter to another character this isn't
> always practical. It looks like the Jackson CSV reader is already written to
> except nulls for those characters and correctly disable quotes but the actual
> service doesn't allow it.
