Mike Percy created FLUME-1704:
---------------------------------
Summary: HDFS sink: Add option to prefix .tmp files with some
string like "_" or "."
Key: FLUME-1704
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1704
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Mike Percy
Fix For: v1.4.0
We should add the capability to the HDFS sink to specify a prefix for the .tmp
files. I believe this needs to be configurable and disabled by default.
However we should document that we recommend "_" or "." as a prefix for the
temp files.
This is because Hadoop's default FileInputFormat will skip files beginning with
"_" or "."
