[jira] [Created] (NIFI-305) Refactor base class from MergeContent

Joseph Gresock created NIFI-305:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Refactor base class from MergeContent
                 Key: NIFI-305
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-305
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core Framework
    Affects Versions: 0.0.1
            Reporter: Joseph Gresock
            Priority: Minor


The binning logic in MergeContent is extremely useful, and could be pulled out into an abstract superclass.  This would allow other processors to perform binning logic without being tied to a merged flow file.  For example, a processor may want to submit a batch request to a database like Solr, or to a REST endpoint.  

The vast majority of the code in MergeContent would remain in the concrete class, but there are several points, such as the BinManager usage, that could be abstracted for easy extensibility.
