[jira] [Created] (NIFI-6670) Create a RecordReader that reads lines of text into single-field records

             Summary: Create a RecordReader that reads lines of text into single-field records
                 Key: NIFI-6670
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6670
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: Matt Burgess


It would be nice to have a reader that can take any textual input and treat each "line" as a single-field record. This is like CSVReader but there wouldn't be a field delimiter; rather, a property to specify the name of the field, and each line becomes a value for that field in the record.

Additional capabilities could be added as well, such as skipping header lines, grouping lines together as a single field value, ignoring empty lines, etc.
