Review request for Nepomuk.
Changes
-------
Add nfo:fileName to archive items. It makes KRunner find archive items when keywords found in the file name are entered.
Description
-------
This patch adds a file metadata extractor for archive files. This extractor handles any file that can be read using KArchive.
The metadata extracted are the uncompressed size of the whole archive (shown in Dolphin, but not formatted like a file size using KB or MB suffixes), and the list of files it contains. The extractor creates one Nepomuk resource per file or directory in the archive (root directory included). These resources have the types ArchiveEntry, and FileDataObject (for files) or Folder (for directories). They also have their nie:url property set to an URL that can be used with the Archive KIO (for instance, "zip:/home/me/archive.zip/one/file" or "tar:/usr/src/linux-3.7.2.tar.xz"). For files, their fileSize is set to the uncompressed size of the file.
The files themselves are not read nor uncompressed. I haven't found a way to recursively extract metadata of archived files (for instance, launching the PlainTextExtractor on any plain text file found in the archive).

Testing
-------
nepomukindexer seems to work. Nepomukshow displays meaningful information about the files indexed, the archive itself and the files contained in it. For a test archive, nepomukshow displays these informations :
$ nepomukshow test.zip
<nepomuk:/res/e5eddbdb-995b-472f-9ef1-3a4ba4c9999d> # Note this ID
rdf:type nfo:FileDataObject
rdf:type nfo:Archive
rdf:type nie:InformationElement
nao:created 2013-04-01T13:57:16.586Z
nao:lastModified 2013-04-01T13:57:17.414Z
nie:lastModified 2013-02-28T20:49:24Z
nie:url file:///home/steckdenis/test.zip
nie:mimeType application/zip
nie:created 2013-02-28T20:49:24Z
nfo:fileSize 3368744
nfo:uncompressedSize 4171547
nfo:fileName test.zip
kext:indexingLevel 2
Displaying the metadata of a file contained in the archive can be done by passing an URL to nepomukshow :
$ nepomukshow 'zip:/home/steckdenis/test.zip/'
<nepomuk:/res/71458f55-898c-4374-ad00-6ac5b1d9c9e7> # Note this ID, it is the one of the root compressed directory
rdf:type nfo:ArchiveItem
rdf:type nfo:Folder
rdf:type nfo:FileDataObject
rdf:type nfo:DataContainer
nao:created 2013-04-01T13:57:17.416Z
nao:lastModified 2013-04-01T13:57:17.416Z
nie:url <zip:/home/steckdenis/test.zip/>
nie:created 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z
nfo:belongsToContainer nepomuk:/res/e5eddbdb-995b-472f-9ef1-3a4ba4c9999d # ID of the archive file itself
$ nepomukshow 'zip:/home/steckdenis/test.zip/6 My account1.png'
<nepomuk:/res/ed73aabc-ce18-4ac7-9db7-f301ce07ffc5>
rdf:type nfo:ArchiveItem
rdf:type nfo:FileDataObject
nao:created 2013-04-01T13:57:17.417Z
nao:lastModified 2013-04-01T13:57:17.417Z
nie:url <zip:/home/steckdenis/test.zip/6%20My%20account1.png>
nie:created 2012-11-21T08:21:08Z
nfo:fileSize 330923 # Uncompressed size
nfo:belongsToContainer nepomuk:/res/71458f55-898c-4374-ad00-6ac5b1d9c9e7 # ID of the root directory
When entering "6 My account1.png" in KRunner, the file is not found, though. I would have liked to see the file there, and to be able to click on it to have it opened in Gwenview using its zip:/ URL.
Thanks,
Denis Steckelmacher
