Hi Mark,
I would just like one that would unzip the file, inspect the files
contained within, and then filter those (if possible) based on their mime type,
then add to index. I guess it does get a bit complicated though. If an index
entry points to the Item that contains the .zip file and the .zip file contains
multiple files, how is the user going to know which file they got a hit/hits
on? But don't we have this same issue anyway with an Item that contains
multiple files since when we do a search, we get a list of Items - not a list
of documents??
I suppose another possibility is the filter could unzip the file, then add
all the files contained within to the Item, then add all to index.
I'm interested in what others say as well.
Thanks,
Sue

Subject: [Dspace-tech] Tangent: how to filter .zip files? [was Re: Media filter
for .zip files]
People ask about filtering .zip files from time to time. Given that a .zip
archive can contain an arbitrary number of files in an arbitrary hierarchial
directory structure, of arbitrary types, with arbitrary relationships among
them (including none whatever), with possibly no file distinguished in any
obvious way, I'm curious: what do you think a .zip filter would do?
