Description

ECMAScript support should be removed from the Scripting Processors following deprecation in NiFI 1.22.0.

Java 11 deprecated the bundled Nashorn Scripting engine and JEP 372 removed Nashorn from Java 15 and following.

Future support for ECMAScript using Nashorn or GraalVM should be evaluated using a different strategy that does not bundle the scripting engine as part of the standard NiFi distribution, and instead allows users to reference external scripting engines.
