Mark Payne commented on NIFI-380:
---------------------------------
Joe,
All looks good. Do we want to remove the constraint that for periodic batches
of output we require textual output? The main reason for doing this was because
it seemed to make sense that binary data shouldn't be arbitrarily chopped
apart, and by requiring it to be text we avoided partial lines to be written
out by reading/writing a line at a time.
However, I believe you mentioned somewhere that you can see a good use to have
binary data arbitrarily chopped. If so, we can enable this and add another
property that indicates whether or not the output that should be line-delimited.
Otherwise, I vote +1 to merge to develop.
Thanks

> this processor should behave similar to ExecuteStreamCommand but is a source
> processor, rather than taking in flowfiles. Also, it needs to support the
> ability to periodically transfer a FlowFile with the output of the command,
> even if the command has not finished, and then create a new FlowFile
