Johny Rufus commented on FLUME-2498:
------------------------------------
Hi [~roshan_naik], Using the System.lineSeparator() is going to return the
current system's line separator which may not be the same case with the file
being processed.
So typically we should
1) figure out the end of a line using '\n' (should work for both unix and
windows)
2) and remove '\n' or '\r\n' in the end depending upon which one is present
(should work for both unix and windows)
Let me know if this sounds good.
> Implement Taildir Source
> ------------------------
>
> Key: FLUME-2498
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2498
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Sinks+Sources
> Reporter: Satoshi Iijima
> Fix For: v1.7.0
>
> Attachments: FLUME-2498-2.patch, FLUME-2498-3.patch, FLUME-2498.patch

> This is the proposal of implementing a new tailing source.
> This source watches the specified files, and tails them in nearly real-time
> once appends are detected to these files.
> * This source is reliable and will not miss data even when the tailing files
> rotate.
> * It periodically writes the last read position of each file in a position
> file using the JSON format.
> * If Flume is stopped or down for some reason, it can restart tailing from
> the position written on the existing position file.
> * It can add event headers to each tailing file group.
> A attached patch includes a config documentation of this.
> This source requires Unix-style file system and Java 1.7 or later.
