Description

As a developer I would like to see an improvement on the ValidateCSV component when using the line by line validation strategy. It will be nice to have an option to append into the flowfile on the invalid relationship 1 or 2 new fields:

• field_name : the name of the field failed in the schema validation
• field_description : the description of the validation error

This will help a lot the user to understand the validation issue on each line.

If too complex, anything that provides information on the fail validation of the line against the schema will be more than welcome

Pentaho DI do something like this by enabling error handling.

Thanks a lot!
