I want to monitor a filesys directory for the presence of a file and, once extant, continue on the pipeline. I'm thinking the top of the pipeline should be a generator or xpl that can: * return filesys directory structure/file info * and/or search for files matching a regexp pattern * and/or continuously monitor filesys changes
To confirm - there's no currently packaged processor to handle any of these things, right? For now, I'm thinking I'll skip the regexp part and create an XPL that: * takes an explicit file name * passes to oxf:url-generator * handles the error of *not* finding the file by inserting a task into oxf:scheduler to recall in a specified number of secs Anyone see any negative implications here? Like in repetitive inserting of scheduled tasks or repetitive url-generator failure? Anyone have a more elegant approach to event-based triggering of a pipeline? Beyond this, anyone have any recommendations on Java classes that I could wrap in a custom processor to handle the tasks I described above? Comments/ideas welcome.
