Alessandro D'Armiento updated NIFI-6462:
----------------------------------------
    Description: 
h2. Current Situation

ListHDFS is designed to be (only) the entry point of a data integration 
pipeline, and therefore can only be triggered on a cron or time base.
h2. Improvement Proposal

ListHDFS should be able to be used as part of your pipeline even if you do not 
expect to have it as the entry point. To obtain it:
 * It has to be triggerable
 * Trigger flowfile should be able to bring the listing directory as an 
attribute

h2. Improvement Proposal

ListHDFS should be able to be used as part of your pipeline even if you do not 
expect to have it as the entry point. To obtain it:
 * It has to be triggerable
 * Trigger flowfile should be able to bring the listing directory as an 
attribute
 * Some logic, such as the "skip the last file in the listing directory" should 
be made optional
 ** Because if you are triggering the execution of the ListHDFS and you are 
sure that the job which writes on the listing folder is over, is pointless to 
skip a file for the next execution
