DetectDuplicate 2.3.0¶

BUNDLE¶

org.apache.nifi | nifi-standard-nar

DESCRIPTION¶

Caches a value, computed from FlowFile attributes, for each incoming FlowFile and determines if the cached value has already been seen. If so, routes the FlowFile to ‘duplicate’ with an attribute named ‘original.identifier’ that specifies the original FlowFile’s “description”, which is specified in the <FlowFile Description> property. If the FlowFile is not determined to be a duplicate, the Processor routes the FlowFile to ‘non-duplicate’

TAGS¶

dedupe, dupe, duplicate, hash

INPUT REQUIREMENT¶

REQUIRED

Supports Sensitive Dynamic Properties¶

false

PROPERTIES¶

Property	Description
Age Off Duration	Time interval to age off cached FlowFiles
Cache Entry Identifier	A FlowFile attribute, or the results of an Attribute Expression Language statement, which will be evaluated against a FlowFile in order to determine the value used to identify duplicates; it is this value that is cached
Cache The Entry Identifier	When true this cause the processor to check for duplicates and cache the Entry Identifier. When false, the processor would only check for duplicates and not cache the Entry Identifier, requiring another processor to add identifiers to the distributed cache.
Distributed Cache Service	The Controller Service that is used to cache unique identifiers, used to determine duplicates
FlowFile Description	When a FlowFile is added to the cache, this value is stored along with it so that if a duplicate is found, this description of the original FlowFile will be added to the duplicate’s “original.flowfile.description” attribute

RELATIONSHIPS¶

NAME	DESCRIPTION
non-duplicate	If a FlowFile’s Cache Entry Identifier was not found in the cache, it will be routed to this relationship
failure	If unable to communicate with the cache, the FlowFile will be penalized and routed to this relationship
duplicate	If a FlowFile has been detected to be a duplicate, it will be routed to this relationship

WRITES ATTRIBUTES¶

NAME	DESCRIPTION
original.flowfile.description	All FlowFiles routed to the duplicate relationship will have an attribute added named original.flowfile.description. The value of this attribute is determined by the attributes of the original copy of the data and by the FlowFile Description property.
