ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-3677: --------------------------------------- Github user zentol commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2109 1. Technically the GlobFilePathFilter is not redundant, since it fulfills exactly the requirements of the issue; be able to filter files by specifying a regular expression. It also offers functionality that is very basic, so i think we should include it. 2. The shouldIgnore method does stuff with locks. Is it safe to just remove that? (since the FileInputFormat doesn't do that.) 3. which methods specifically? > FileInputFormat: Allow to specify include/exclude file name patterns > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-3677 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3677 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Reporter: Maximilian Michels > Assignee: Ivan Mushketyk > Priority: Minor > Labels: starter > > It would be nice to be able to specify a regular expression to filter files. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
