Puspendu Banerjee commented on NIFI-1045:
-----------------------------------------
Hi,
Understood & doable, but not sure how the following use-case will be met:
Say Nifi is pushing /updating file xyz to hdfs.
Application X is monitoring xyz for any change and on change it will fetch &
process xyz.
Now, if we use new file name for updated xyz, X will have to monitor whole
parent directory & process every file or have to directly couple with NiFi to
get an event/notification/message about such action.
It's a design decision, so some trade-off is unavoidable & I would leave it up
to you and [~trixpan].
Thanks,
Puspendu
> Add "backup suffix" Conflict Resolution Strategy to PutHDFS / PutFile
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: NIFI-1045
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1045
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core Framework
> Affects Versions: 0.3.0
> Reporter: Andre
>
> It would be great if we could add a "backup suffix" conflict resolution
> strategy to when saving files to FS/HDFS. This would act in a similar way to
> rsync's {{--backup --suffix}}
> The suffix could support Language expression (similar to using
> {{--suffix=`date +"%F"`}} on rsync)
