Julien Massiera commented on CONNECTORS-1549:
---------------------------------------------
After some tests, I noticed that the problem only happens when exclude rules
are all defined BEFORE include rules.
For example, here is my original job configuration :
!image-2018-10-18-18-34-01-542.png!
and here is the extract of the JSON generated for the API for this job :
{code:java}
"startpoint": {
"include": {
"_attribute_filespec": "*",
"_value_": "",
"_attribute_type": "file"
},
"_attribute_path": "ocr",
"_value_": "",
"exclude": [
{
"_attribute_filespec": "*.pst",
"_value_": "",
"_attribute_type": "file"
},
{
"_attribute_filespec": "*",
"_value_": "",
"_attribute_type": "directory"
}
]
}
{code}
When re-creating the job thanks to the same JSON here is the new job
configuration:
!image-2018-10-18-18-33-01-577.png!
When executing my original job, the pst files are correctly filtered, but when
executing the job created from the generated JSON, they are not excluded from
the process.
However, if I create a job that combines include and exclude rules, the JSON
generated by the API uses a different format for the filters :
{code:java}
"startpoint": {
"_children_": [
{
"_type_": "include",
"_attribute_filespec": "/subfolder1/",
"_value_": "",
"_attribute_type": "directory"
},
{
"_type_": "exclude",
"_attribute_filespec": "*",
"_value_": "",
"_attribute_type": "directory"
},
{
"_type_": "include",
"_attribute_filespec": "*",
"_value_": "",
"_attribute_type": "file"
}
],
"_attribute_path": "ocr",
"_value_": ""
}{code}
In that case, the order is respected and the job behavior is what I expect.

> Reporter: Julien Massiera

>
> The include and exclude rules that can be defined in the job configuration
> for the JCIFS connector can be combined and the defined order is really
> important.
> The problem is that when one retrieve the job configuration as a json object
> through the API, the include and exclude rules are splitted in two diffrent
> arrays instead of one (one for each type of rule). So, the order is
> completely lost when one try to recreate the job thanks to the API and the
> JSON object.
