[jira] [Commented] (NIFI-9748) Allow single-line output mode for LogAttribute

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-9748?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17501326#comment-17501326 ] 

ASF subversion and git services commented on NIFI-9748:
-------------------------------------------------------

Commit 65dd62716a62164f44be85657283103885f0f3ae in nifi's branch refs/heads/main from Mark Payne
[ https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=nifi.git;h=65dd627 ]

NIFI-9748: Added new property for Output Format to LogAttribute. Also made the FlowFile Properties (file size, entry date, lineage start date) optional and renamed from 'Standard FlowFile Attributes' to 'FlowFile Properties' because this has led to confusion many times in the past, around users wanting to reference these things as attributes via EL but they are not actually attributes.

This closes #5825

> LogAttribute can be used to compare the attributes of multiple FlowFiles for debugging purposes. However, it's difficult to compare the attributes of multiple FlowFiles because of the way that the attributes are logged, one key or value per line.
> The key or value per line output format has value in that it's easy to read when just looking at the attributes of a single FlowFile, but it's difficult to use for comparison purposes.
> We should provide the option to output all attributes on a single line so that the attributes of 2 or more FlowFiles can be more easily compared.
