I dont think the documentation can be anymore descriptive:

  /**
   * Create a input stream that monitors a Hadoop-compatible filesystem
   * for new files and reads them using the given key-value types and input
format.
   * Files must be written to the monitored directory by "moving" them from
another
   * location within the same file system. File names starting with . are
ignored.
   * @param directory HDFS directory to monitor for new file
   * @tparam K Key type for reading HDFS file
   * @tparam V Value type for reading HDFS file
   * @tparam F Input format for reading HDFS file
   */
