Christian Porzio commented on MINIFICPP-30:
-------------------------------------------
I think it would be more beneficial to have *TailFail* behaving the same way.
The API described here:
[https://github.com/apache/nifi-minifi-cpp/blob/master/PROCESSORS.md#tailfile]
is quite different from the one here:
[https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/components/org.apache.nifi/nifi-standard-nar/1.8.0/org.apache.nifi.processors.standard.TailFile/]
Actually the *nifi.apache.org* one does have the concept of base directory
where files to be tailed use a _RegEx_ logic which can lead to a very powerful
way to target files, beyond what just a wildcards could do.
Is that what this ticket is about? If not is there an intend to have the two
API consistent?
Thank you
