Bryan Bende commented on NIFI-3759:
-----------------------------------

Just adding to Joe's comment...

As part of the Parquet work, I created AbstractPutHDFSRecord which should have 
80-90% of the logic:

https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-extension-utils/nifi-record-utils/nifi-hadoop-record-utils/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/processors/hadoop/AbstractPutHDFSRecord.java

Then implementations just need to provide an HDFSWriter by implementing this 
method:
{code}
public abstract HDFSRecordWriter createHDFSRecordWriter(
            final ProcessContext context, final FlowFile flowFile, final 
Configuration conf, final Path path, final RecordSchema schema) throws 
IOException, SchemaNotFoundException;
{code}

We could go the route of having PutHDFSAvro that extends AbstractPutHDFSRecord 
and provides an HDFSRecordWriter that knows how to deal with writing Avro.

We could also try to have a generic PutHDFSRecord with a strategy for choosing 
the destination format and then it would create the appropriate HDFSWriter 
based on the format.

> It would be nice where Nifi already supports working with AVRO to enable hdfs 
> append working correctly with avro files coming from MergeContent processor.
> I suggest making a similar choice in as in MergeContent to be able to choose 
> a file format which applies file format specific logic when required.
