Bug ID: 434705
Summary: Add "default excludes" for baloo hidden folder search
Product: baloo-widgets
Version: 20.12.3
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY:
If enabling the "hidden folders' search in baloo, it may be friendlier
to exclude the cache and wastebasket (as the default)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Enable baloo, make sure it is indexing $HOME, add "index hidden files
and folders"
Run "balooctl monitor" to keep an eye on what's happening in one window
and run "balooctl purge" in another. Stand back...
OBSERVED RESULTS
You'll see "some", "lots" or "shedloads" of files being indexed
under .cache, maybe also deleted files under .local/shared/Trash
EXPECTED RESULTS
"Kinder, Gentler Indexing" :-)
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Neon Testing
Dolphin : 20.12.3
Plasma : 5.21.3
Frameworks : 5.81.0
Qt : 5.15.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Most likely the .cache and wastebasket entries are "noise".
A line "waiting":
exclude folders[$e]=$HOME/.cache/,$HOME/.local/share/Trash/
in .config/baloofilerc would mean if indexing is enabled for hidden
folders, these start out as excluded.
