I looked at the code, and see your function to verify the contents of the file in the unit test. Nice work! I can't think of anything else off-hand that would preclude a PR where the development community can formally review everything. Lucky for you, another developer recently brought in libarchive (MINIFICPP-72), and I think they worked out the somewhat complex LICENSING documentation. Watch out for some minor conflicts since that PR isn't merged yet (both that branch and yours will bring in libarchive). Things should be compatible, but I imagine there will be a small amount of conflicting/redundant code in the CMakeLists. was (Author: achristianson): If your cloud9 environment is based on ubuntu, you should be able to apt-get install rocksdb & the development headers (check the nifi dev mailing list for a recent post by [~phrocker] on this.

A concise, though informal, definition of a lens is as follows: > "Essentially, they represent the act of “peering into” or “focusing in on” > some particular piece/path of a complex data object such that you can more > precisely target particular operations without losing the context or > structure of the overall data you’re working with." > https://medium.com/@dtipson/functional-lenses-d1aba9e52254#.hdgsvbraq > Why an FocusArchive in MiNiFi? Simply put, it will enable us to "focus in on" > an entry in the archive, perform processing *in-context* of that entry, then > re-focus on the overall archive. This allows for transformation or other > processing of an entry in the archive without losing the overall context of > the archive. > Initial format support is tar, due to its simplicity and ubiquity. > Attributes: > - Path (the path in the archive to focus; "/" to re-focus the overall archive) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
