Re: [Exist-open] 'text/javascript' files parsed as XML byxdb:store-files-from-pattern (wasxdb:store-files-from-pattern skips one directorywhenrecursive pattern is used)

Adam,

I think I have a better idea than what I wrote last night. At the moment if 
a file is of unknown MIME type it is assumed it should be well formed and it 
is parsed before it is saved into the db. I believe then the most common 
case is - the unknown file is binary and we just save it. This way we can 
save into the db anything we like, without need to update mime-types.xml.

BTW, I have an idea to allow xdb:store-files-from-pattern to filter the 
imported files agianst the file timestamp:
  $recent-only as xs:boolean  - when this parameter is true, then only the 
files that have a timestamp recent then timestamp of the corresponding the 
resource are imported. New files that do not exist in the db are procesed as 
well.

This functinality could be especially useful when we have large number of 
files to be imported like JavaScript, CSS or configuration  XML files and 
only few of them have been changed recently.

I hope this will help.

Thomas
