Bolke de Bruin commented on AIRFLOW-173: ---------------------------------------- I like it, but wouldnt a inotify combination with a trigger dag_run not be more efficient? > Create a FileSensor / NFSFileSensor sensor > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: AIRFLOW-173 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-173 > Project: Apache Airflow > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Andre > Priority: Minor > > While HDFS and WebHDFS suit most organisations using Hadoop, for some shops > running MapR-FS, Airflow implementation is simplified by the use of plain > files pointing to MapR's NFS gateways. > A FileSensor and/or a NFSFileSensor would assist the adoption of Airflow > within the MapR customer base, but more importantly, help those who are using > POSIX compliant distributed filesystems that can be mounted on Unix > derivative systems (e.g. as MapR-FS (via NFS), CephFS, GlusterFS, etc). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
