[NIFI-6131] MergeContent is not properly storing file permissions from tar.permissions

• Type: Bug
• Status: Open
• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Unresolved

Description

• GetFile retrieves files, with permissions stored in file.permissions in "rwx" format
• UpdateAttribute converts rwx to digits and stores in tar.permissions via the following:
  • ${file.permissions:replaceAll('rwx','7'):replaceAll('rw-','6'):replaceAll('r-x','5'):replaceAll('r-','4'):replaceAll('-wx','3'):replaceAll('-w','2'):replaceAll('–x','1'):replaceAll('—','0')}
• MergeContent creates tar file, reading tar.permissions
• Download and extract files from tarball
• Check permissions against incoming files
  • Permissions do not match, for example:
    • rwxrwx- becomes -r-----wT
    • rwxr-xr-x becomes -wxrw–wt
    • rw-rw-r- becomes --w–wx–T
    • rw------ becomes ---x-wx–T
    • rw-rr- becomes -w---r-T
    • rwxrwxr-x becomes -r----rwt
    • rwxr-xr-x becomes -wxrw–wt
• Have tried pre-pending a leading 0, which also does not work.
