Hey @pvillard31, I'm gonna start reviewing this. I noticed this was
initially committed back in June, sorry no one has reviewed this yet but could
you rebase? I know there are no conflicts but a lot has happened on the master
branch in last month that could have an impact.
> TailFile not ingesting data when tailed file is moved with no rolling pattern
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: NIFI-1959
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1959
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 0.6.1
> Reporter: Pierre Villard
> Assignee: Pierre Villard
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.0.0
>
>
> In case "Rolling Filename Pattern" is not set by user and if the tailed file
> is moved, then the new file will not be tailed.
> Besides, in such case, the processor will be endlessly triggered without
> ingesting data: it creates a lot of tasks and consumes CPU. The reason is it
> never goes in if statement L448.
> A solution is to look at size() and lastUpdated() of the tailed file to
> detect a "rollover". However it won't allow the processor to ingest the
> potential data added in the tailed file just before being moved.
