    Is it better to mock here or use the target/ area (since HDFS defaults to 
local FS) for file existence, deletion, etc.?


> Add DeleteHDFS Processor

>             Project: Apache NiFi

> There are times where a user may want to remove a file or directory from 
> HDFS. The reasons for this vary, but to provide some context, I currently 
> have a pipeline where I need to periodically delete files that my NiFi 
> pipeline is producing. In my case, it's a "Delete files after they are 7 days 
> old". 
> Currently, I have to use the {{ExecuteStreamCommand}} processor and manually 
> call {{hdfs dfs -rm}}, which is awful when dealing with a large amount of 
> files. For one, an entire JVM is spun up for each delete, and two, when 
> deleting directories with thousands of files, it can sometimes cause the 
> command to hang indefinitely. 
> With that being said, I am proposing we add a {{DeleteHDFS}} processor which 
> meets the following criteria. 
> * Can delete both directories and files
> * Can delete directories recursively
> * Supports the dynamic expression language 
> * Supports using glob paths (e.g. /data/for/2017/08/*)
> * Capable of being a downstream processor as well as a standalone processor
