Hi,
I am pretty new to Nifi and working out to create process flow for my application.
I have a process which waits for control files(.ctl) once they arrive the corresponding avro files are moved in to HDFS and there two kinds of files. lets say <file-type-a-timestamp> and <file-type-b-timestamp>.
Once i receive the corresponding <file-type-a-timestamp> and <file-type-b-timestamp> based on the timestamp, i have to kick of a spark application by passing both files as arguments with the hdfs location.
At a given point in time, i might have a more than one <file-type-a-timestamp> and/or <file-type-b-timestamp>.
Which processor can i use for this method ? As of now, i have created a group for waiting for control files and moving to HDFS and used a output port to send the information to other group, where i am planning for kicking of the spark application.
Thanks and appreciate your feedback and help.
