OK,
Is this what you need for inspiration?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------
1) Parrameter: "document-mime-types" with values separated by ENTER (\n),
like this:
application/pdf
application/msword
.. etc
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------
2) Update attribute procesor with new attribute: "mime.list" with
expression:
${#{document-mime-types}:replace('\n','|'):toLower()}
Note: attribute "mime.list" will be: "application/pdf|application/msword" -
thats mean data separate by pipe for regexp ready expression
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------
3) Route on attribute procesor with regexp rule:
${mime.type:toLower():matches('(${mime.list})')}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------
Marek
P.S. Or you can direct setup document-mime-types parameter with data
separated by pipe for regexp, like this:
"application/pdf|application/msword|application/json|application/text"
and skip update attribute procesor

I’m trying to make it possible that an external parameter provider can hold
the mime-types so it’s easy to update the list of mime-types without
changing the flow file itself.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: Use parameters in list to match "in" expression
What about using a simple key value lookup service. Where the mime type
is the key, and the value could just be true or something.
If there is a match route it, if unmatched terminate.
Kind regards

Předmět: Use parameters in list to match "in" expression
"
I am using the `RouteOnAttribute` processor to route files based on mime
type in a flow that I intend to be reusable but would like to either use
a single parameter with the list of mime types or multiple parameters,
one for each mime type (ideally without knowing the number of parameters
ahead of time).
I am using the expression
${mime.type:in("application/pdf","application/msword")}
without issue, but can't get any of
${mime.type:in(“#{document-mime-type1}”)}
${mime.type:in(#{document-mime-type1})}
${mime.type:in("#{document-mime-type1}","#{document-mime-type2}")}
${mime.type:in(#{document-mime-type1},#{document-mime-type2})}
Or
${mime.type:in({document-mime-types})}
to work but can’t seem to find any documentation suggesting I should (or
should not) expect parameters to work in this scenario.
The parameters are defined as:
document-mime-type1 = “application/pdf”
document-mime-type2 = “application/msword”
document-mime-types = “application/pdf,application/msword”
Any help would be appreciated,
