Method Detail

checkDateIndexable

boolean checkDateIndexable(java.util.Date date)
                    throws ManifoldCFException,
                           ServiceInterruption

Detect if a document date is acceptable downstream or not. This method is used to determine whether it makes sense to fetch a document in the first place.

Parameters:

date - is the date of the document.

Returns:

true if the document with that date can be accepted by the downstream connection.

Throws:

ManifoldCFException

ServiceInterruption

checkMimeTypeIndexable

boolean checkMimeTypeIndexable(java.lang.String mimeType)
                        throws ManifoldCFException,
                               ServiceInterruption

Detect if a mime type is acceptable downstream or not. This method is used to determine whether it makes sense to fetch a document in the first place.

Parameters:

mimeType - is the mime type of the document.

Returns:

true if the mime type can be accepted by the downstream connection.

Throws:

ManifoldCFException

ServiceInterruption

checkDocumentIndexable

boolean checkDocumentIndexable(java.io.File localFile)
                        throws ManifoldCFException,
                               ServiceInterruption

Pre-determine whether a document (passed here as a File object) is acceptable downstream. This method is used to determine whether a document needs to be actually transferred. This hook is provided mainly to support search engines that only handle a small set of accepted file types.

Parameters:

localFile - is the local file to check.

Returns:

true if the file is acceptable by the downstream connection.

Throws:

ManifoldCFException

ServiceInterruption

checkLengthIndexable

boolean checkLengthIndexable(long length)
                      throws ManifoldCFException,
                             ServiceInterruption

Pre-determine whether a document's length is acceptable downstream. This method is used to determine whether to fetch a document in the first place.

Parameters:

length - is the length of the document.

Returns:

true if the file is acceptable by the downstream connection.

Throws:

ManifoldCFException

ServiceInterruption

checkURLIndexable

boolean checkURLIndexable(java.lang.String url)
                   throws ManifoldCFException,
                          ServiceInterruption

Pre-determine whether a document's URL is acceptable downstream. This method is used to help filter out documents that cannot be indexed in advance.

Parameters:

url - is the URL of the document.

Returns:

true if the file is acceptable by the downstream connection.

Throws:

ManifoldCFException

ServiceInterruption
