Remove binary field after attachment processor execution#79172
Merged
Conversation
Keeping the binary as a field within the document might consume a lot of resources. It is highly recommended to remove that field from the document, which can be done by adding a `remove` processor in th pipeline. This commit allows an easier way of doing this by adding a new option `remove_binary`. When set to `true`, it removes automatically the field at the end of the processor execution. It defaults to `false` to keep the existing behavior and not introduce any breaking change.

Looks good to me. My only question is whether we'd want to change the default to true at some point in the future? I'd be surprised if most people wanted the binary. I think we discussed this, and @dakrone wanted to keep the default behavior the same though.
