Description

Some "splitting" processors such as SplitText and SplitContent write attributes to the split flow files indicating their fragment index, the total count, and the filename of the original flow file. This is done to support a form of "micro-batching" and/or a split-join pattern in a data flow (i.e. split the original file, do work on the individual pieces, and possibly merge them together later).

For consistency and capability, the SplitJson and SplitXml processors should write these same attributes for their split flow files.
