Your changes look good to me. Let me know if you want to have a look to
enable EL/RegEx on HDFS_PATH_TO_WATCH property (ReplaceText processor seems to
accept both regex and expression language on search value property).
Regarding annotations and mime type, I just had a discussion with @apiri
and the conclusion is it'd be preferable to keep consistency with what has been
done so far. If this attribute changes in the future, only the documentation
would be slightly incorrect.
Once done, I think we are ready to merge.

> Key: NIFI-1037
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1037
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: nicolas maillard
> Assignee: Josh Meyer
> Priority: Minor
>
> HDFS has an Inotify interface that enables to access the HDFS edit stream.
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6634
> Creating a processor to listen in and get notifications either for select
> directories or select actions would have many applications.
> - Stream to a search engine the activity on HDFS
> - Wait for specific actions or files to trigger workflows, like duplication
> to other clusters
> - Validate ingestion processes
> etc..
> probably more I don't think of.
> I have a first working beta version that needs to evolve
> it reuses the Hadoop-nar-bundle
> Needs a HDFS 2.7 dependency currently done through editing the Hadop-lib
> bundle
> let me know if this idea makes sense and would be of interest to the community
> would love to contribute the idea
