GeoEnrichIPRecord

Description:

Looks up geolocation information for an IP address and adds the geo information to FlowFile attributes. The geo data is provided as a MaxMind database. This version uses the NiFi Record API to allow large scale enrichment of record-oriented data sets. Each field provided by the MaxMind database can be directed to a field of the user's choosing by providing a record path for that field configuration.
