>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1988
>             Project: Flume
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Docs, Sinks+Sources
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
>            Reporter: Israel Ekpo
>            Assignee: Israel Ekpo
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: serializers

> RegexDelimiterDeSerializer.java, ResettableTestStringInputStream.java, 
> TestRegexDelimiterDeSerializer.java

> There are certain use cases for SpoolingDirectorySource where the events in 
> the log file are not delimited with newline characters.
> Certain log files that contain stack traces, xml documents and pretty JSON 
> strings seem to contain multiple new line characters within each event.
> We can use alternative logic such as specific characters, strings or regular 
> expressions to determine when the event is complete.
> Hence I am proposing the following new deserializers based on 
> org.apache.flume.serialization.LineDeserializer
> # org.apache.flume.serialization.RegexDelimiterDeSerializer
> Allows the user to specify a regular expression that is a delimiter for 
> events within the log file
> # org.apache.flume.serialization.CharSequenceDelimiterDeSerializer
> Allows the user to specify a comma separated character sequence that is a 
> delimiter for events within the log file
> The user will specify an integer for the ascii characters and we will use 
> that as the delimter.
> For example support for \r\n could be specified as 13,10
> A list of codes is available at http://www.asciitable.com/
> We will also need to update the user guide with examples on how to configure 
> and specify a custom deserializer.
