Hi @jasonrogena . Thanks for submitting this. I'm sure @jdye64 appreciates
it as well because I know he is busy but wants this feature incorporated. I am
a little busy with some other things right now but I will definitely take a
look at this.
A couple quick suggestions I know I will have:
* Some of your files still reference NiFi `1.5.0-SNAPSHOT` or `1.6.0`.
Others correctly reference `1.8.0-SNAPSHOT` as the current development version.
Please ensure that all development versions are `1.8.0-SNAPSHOT`, and the
latest released version at this time is `1.7.1`.
* Some files have the license text block after package declarations,
imports, or XML opening tags. In each of these files, it needs to be the very
first block of text. You can identify issues by running the maven build with
`-Pcontrib-check` and it will highlight these issues for you. This will also
run the NiFi checkstyle rules to help identify any code style issues. If you
have issues with binary files being caught, you can exclude them in the
`pom.xml` (search the project for `<excludes combine.children="append">` in
other `pom.xml` files for examples).
