Our extensions represent a merging of our assembly based packaging and
nifi's nar packaging and projects. It is more the model of the processor nars
with the assembly added in than anything else.
In a nar processor project created by the archetype, the structure is much
as it is here. I modeled after that and did not think to refactor it. There
is a parent, a nar module and a module for the actual processor code. That I
did was pull the assembly out of where metron would have it in the parser
module and make it it's own module at the top level. This made sense to me
because the assembly was working with the products of the other two modules.
I wanted to keep it simple straight forward. If the assembly had to
assemble the bundle results, then it needed to be in the bundle project not the
parser project..... and things get not so simple.
