Bryan Bende commented on NIFI-1784:
-----------------------------------

Rather than calling this FetchHBase which implies fetching a specific cell 
(similar to how other "fetch" processors work in NiFI) we should probably call 
this ScanHBase and support any type of scan, and still allow incoming flow 
files for dynamic scans.

This would allow for several different uses cases, such as:

- Fetch a static cell by providing table, row id, col fam, col qual directly in 
the processor
- Fetch a dynamic cell by obtaining the table, row id, col fam, col qual from 
an incoming FlowFile
- Fetch an entire table, or portion of a table, repeatedly on some interval by 
providing the table name in the processor

GetHBase can still be used when people want incremental pulling based on new 
records.

> We should provide a processor to fetch a row from HBase. The processor should 
> support receiving an incoming FlowFile and taking the row id to fetch from an 
> attribute on the incoming, and should also be able to fetch a static row id.
