Matt Burgess updated NIFI-4612:
-------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: In Progress)
> Allow AvroSchemaRegistry to disable name validation
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-4612
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4612
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Reporter: Matt Burgess
> Assignee: Matt Burgess
>
> The AvroSchemaRegistry is used to specify the schema/data format for Record
> Readers/Writers. The Readers/Writers are implemented for any data format
> (JSON, CSV, e.g.), which have their own rules for naming conventions and
> allowed characters, etc. However AvroSchemaRegistry imposes the Avro rules
> for naming, which can make it difficult/impossible to represent certain data
> formats as records, such as Mongo documents with operators as field names
> (such as $set).
> An improvement would be to add a boolean property to AvroSchemaRegistry
> (defaulted to true to retain current behavior) called "Validate Field Names".
> In the AvroSchemaValidator and AvroSchemaRegistry (both places where the
> schema is parsed), the value of Validate Field Names would be set on the
> parser using setValidate().
