[jira] [Commented] (NIFI-5979) ReplaceText Number of Occurrences

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5979?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16794326#comment-16794326 ] 

Purushotham Pushpavanthar commented on NIFI-5979:
-------------------------------------------------

Having config for Number of occurrences to replace makes sense. I would like to have the *Occurrence offset* from which replacement is considered. Default value for *Occurrence offset* can be 0 which means it starts from beginning of the flowfile content. 

[~spiglitz] Please comment your views on this. I started working on this.

> Add a property to ReplaceText for *Number of Occurrences* to replace.
> This would have been useful in a situation where I only wanted to replace one string at the beginning of a CSV file since I needed the ability to remove white spaces from CSV header fields to make Avro schema happy.
