Caleb Johnson commented on MINIFICPP-39:
----------------------------------------
[~achristianson], check the MINIFI-244-rc branch for what I think is ready to
PR. It has full tests via PutFile, and has been rebased, squashed, and linted
(is that what you call a clean linter pass?).
I can't get rocksdb to build on cloud9 for some reason, but the Un/FocusArchive
tests build and run. Unfortunately, cloud9 doesn't have support for Docker.

> Create an FocusArchive processor which implements a lens over an archive
> (tar, etc.). A concise, though informal, definition of a lens is as follows:
> "Essentially, they represent the act of “peering into” or “focusing in on”
> some particular piece/path of a complex data object such that you can more
> precisely target particular operations without losing the context or
> structure of the overall data you’re working with."

> Why an FocusArchive in MiNiFi? Simply put, it will enable us to "focus in on"
> an entry in the archive, perform processing *in-context* of that entry, then
> re-focus on the overall archive. This allows for transformation or other
> processing of an entry in the archive without losing the overall context of
> the archive.
> Initial format support is tar, due to its simplicity and ubiquity.
> Attributes:
> - Path (the path in the archive to focus; "/" to re-focus the overall archive)
