FreeFormTextRecordSetWriter

Description

Writes the contents of a RecordSet as free-form text. The configured text is able to make use of the Expression Language to reference each of the fields that are available in a Record, as well as the attributes in the FlowFile and variables. If there is a name collision, the field name/value is used before attributes or variables. Each record in the RecordSet will be separated by a single newline character.
