Shalin Shekhar Mangar commented on SOLR-1060:
---------------------------------------------

My concern is that we have two data sources whose names identify their 
respective functionality. With this change FileDataSource becomes redundant and 
HttpDataSource does not give the impression that it can read files too. I 
assume that everyone will be generating the changeset using their own sweet 
tools/programs. Therefore it is a simple task for the changeset generator to 
generate http/file separately or mark them differently. Then one can use 
different root entities.

The ChangeListEntityProcessor should not care whether the changelist contains a 
filepath or url -- they are all strings to it which should be added to a map 
and passed along. If it is a delete set, then it should set $deleteDocByQuery 
or $deleteDocById along with $skipDoc and return. The ChangeListEntityProcessor 
should not try to collaborate with any other entity. It does not need to know 
about them just as current EntityProcessor do not know about each other.

For example:
{code:xml}
<dataConfig>
  <dataSource name="file" type="FileDataSource"/>
  <document>
    <entity name="changeSet" processor="ChangeSetEntityProcessor"
            rootEntity="false"
            allowRegex="^.*\.xml$"
            blockRegex="usc2009"
            manifestFileName="/Volumes/ts/man-find.txt"
            docAddRegex=".*">
      <entity name="indexer" processor="XPathEntityProcessor"
              dataSource="file"
              forEach="/root/a"
              url="${changeSet.filename}">

      </entity>
    </entity>
  </document>
</dataConfig>
{code}

Here the ${changeSet.filename} is just a normal key/val in the changeSet 
entity's row map.

> I have finished a new DIH EntityProcessor. It is designed around the idea 
> that whatever demon is used to maintain your content store it is likely to 
> drop a report or log file explaining what has changed within your content 
> store. I wish to use this report file to control the indexing of the new or 
> changed content and the removal of old content. The report files, perhaps 
> from un-tar or un-zip, are likely to reference jpegs and directory stubs 
> which need to be ignored. I assumed a file based content repository but this 
> should be expanded to handle URI's as well
> I feel that the current FileListEntityProcessor is poorly named. It should be 
> called the dirWalkEntityProcessor or dirCrawlEntityProcessor or such. And 
> this new EntityProcessor should have the name FileListEntityProcessor. 
> However what is done is done. I then came up with manifestEnityProcessor 
> which I thought suited, manifest files are all over the content sets I deal 
> with and the dictionary definition seemed close enough ("ships manifest"). 
> However how about ChangeListEntityProcessor
> {code}
>        <entity name="jc"
>                processor="ManifestEntityProcessor"
>                baseDir="/Volumes/Techmore/ts/aaa/schema/data"

> The new entity fields are as follows.
>  
>    *manifestFileName* is the required location of the manifest file. If this 
> value is relative, it assumed to be relative to baseDir.
>    *allowRegex* is an optional attribute that if present discards any line 
> which does not match the regExp
>  
>    *blockRegex* is an optional attribute that is applied after any allowRegex 
> and discards any line which matches the regExp
>    *docAddRegex* is a required regex to identify lines which when matched 
> should cause docs to be added to the index. As well as matching the line it 
> should also return the portion of the line which contains the filepath as 
> group(1)
>    *docDeleteRegex* is an optional value of a regex to identify documents 
> which when matched should be deleted from the index. As well as matching the 
> line it should also return the portion of the line which contains the 
> filepath as group(1) **PLANNED**
