Re: how is it possible to write a filter for directories?

[Max <open zeitloos de>]

Hello dBera,

you're right, xmp for directories doesn't seem to work.  :-(
Is there any reason why?

do you mean within a filter for this metadata file? 

Deleting the directory should not be a problem. The indexable should be
removed and everything is fine.

Updating the metadata file should trigger reindexing of that file and the
filter should handle all necessary stuff.

But deleting the metadata file won't delete any metadata from directory
indexables, because only the metadata file indexable will be removed.

Looks like a whole backend is necessary to solve this, doesn't it?


And what would be the right name for properties like dc:audience and
dc:instructionalMethod? Should they get prefixed by anything else?


Bye
