[jira] [Commented] (NIFI-6441) List File - Dynamic Input Directory

["Joseph Witt (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6441?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16885273#comment-16885273 ] 

Joseph Witt commented on NIFI-6441:
-----------------------------------

This is likely a very complicated request and/or implementation.  Consider whether you want nifi to keep track of listings it has already completed and if it should continually track a given directory for updates/deltas since the last listing.  Consider whether it is just a one-time 'go list all the things' request/etc..  You'll want to really specify the use case/needs/capabilities in detail so someone who might be available and willing could pick this up.

> Hi,
> I am looking to provide Input Directory value dynamically from a database table to listen for multiple file directories using List File processor. At present there is no incoming flow for List File processor. Is it possible to provide directory path dynamically ?
