Interface MediaFilterService

All Known Implementing Classes:

MediaFilterServiceImpl

public interface MediaFilterService

MediaFilterManager is the class that invokes the media/format filters over the repository's content. A few command line flags affect the operation of the MFM: -v verbose outputs all extracted text to STDOUT; -f force forces all bitstreams to be processed, even if they have been before; -n noindex does not recreate index after processing bitstreams; -i [identifier] limits processing scope to a community, collection or item; and -m [max] limits processing to a maximum number of items.

Method Detail

applyFiltersAllItems

void applyFiltersAllItems(Context context)
                          throws Exception

Throws:

Exception

applyFiltersCommunity

void applyFiltersCommunity(Context context,
                         Community community)
                           throws Exception

Throws:

Exception

applyFiltersCollection

void applyFiltersCollection(Context context,
                          Collection collection)
                            throws Exception

Throws:

Exception

applyFiltersItem

void applyFiltersItem(Context c,
                    Item item)
                      throws Exception

Throws:

Exception

filterItem

boolean filterItem(Context context,
                 Item myItem)
                   throws Exception

Iterate through the item's bitstreams in the ORIGINAL bundle, applying filters if possible.

Parameters:

context - context

myItem - item

Returns:

true if any bitstreams processed, false if none

Throws:

Exception - if error

filterBitstream

boolean filterBitstream(Context c,
                      Item myItem,
                      Bitstream myBitstream)
                        throws Exception

Attempt to filter a bitstream. An exception will be thrown if the media filter class cannot be instantiated. Exceptions from filtering will be logged to STDOUT and swallowed.

Parameters:

c - context

myItem - item

myBitstream - bitstream

Returns:

true if bitstream processed, false if no applicable filter or already processed

Throws:

Exception - if error

processBitstream

boolean processBitstream(Context context,
                       Item item,
                       Bitstream source,
                       FormatFilter formatFilter)
                         throws Exception

A utility class that calls the virtual methods from the current MediaFilter class. It scans the bitstreams in an item, and decides if a bitstream has already been filtered, and if not or if overWrite is set, invokes the filter.

Parameters:

context - context

item - item containing bitstream to process

source - source bitstream to process

formatFilter - FormatFilter to perform filtering

Returns:

true if new rendition is created, false if rendition already exists and overWrite is not set

Throws:

Exception - if error occurs

getCurrentItem

Item getCurrentItem()

Return the item that is currently being processed/filtered by the MediaFilterManager.

This allows FormatFilters to retrieve the Item object in case they need access to item-level information for their format transformations/conversions.

Returns:

current Item being processed by MediaFilterManager

inSkipList

boolean inSkipList(String identifier)

Check whether or not to skip processing the given identifier.

Parameters:

identifier - identifier (handle) of a community, collection or item

Returns:

true if this community, collection or item should be skipped during processing. Otherwise, return false.

setVerbose

void setVerbose(boolean isVerbose)

setQuiet

void setQuiet(boolean isQuiet)

setForce

void setForce(boolean isForce)

setMax2Process

void setMax2Process(int max2Process)

setFilterClasses

void setFilterClasses(List<FormatFilter> filterClasses)

setSkipList

void setSkipList(List<String> skipList)

setFilterFormats

void setFilterFormats(Map<String,List<String>> filterFormats)
