Jack Hu commented on SPARK-3276:
--------------------------------

With some cases, the old files (older than current spark system time) are
needed: if you have a fixed list in hdfs you want to correlate to the input
stream, then you need to load it from the file system.

As the newFilesOnly options, it breaks on spark 1.2 (It works on 1.1).




> Provide a API to specify whether the old files need to be ignored in file 
> input text DStream

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Streaming
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
>            Reporter: Jack Hu
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Currently, only one API called textFileStream in StreamingContext to specify 
> the text file dstream, which ignores the old files always. On some times, the 
> old files is still useful.
> Need a API to let user choose whether the old files need to be ingored or not 
> .
> The API currently in StreamingContext:
> def textFileStream(directory: String): DStream[String] = {
>     fileStream[LongWritable, Text, 
> TextInputFormat](directory).map(_._2.toString)
>   }
