             Summary: regex documentation
                 Key: CONNECTORS-1584
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1584
             Project: ManifoldCF
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Web connector
    Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 2.12
            Reporter: Tim Steenbeke


What type of regexs does manifold include and exclude support and also in 
general regex support?

At the moment i'm using a web repository connection and an Elastic output 
connection.
I'm trying to exclude urls that link to documents.

          e.g. website.com/document/path/this.pdf and 
website.com/document/path/other.PDF

The issue i'm having is that the regex that I have found so far doesn't work 
case insensitive, so for every possible case i have to add a new line.
           e.g.: .*.pdf$ and .*.PDF$ and .*.Pdf and ... .

Is it possible to add documentation what type of regex is able to be used or 
maybe a tool to test your regex and see if it is supported by manifold ?

I tried mailing this question to 
[u...@manifoldcf.apache.org|mailto:u...@manifoldcf.apache.org] but this mail 
adress returns a failure notice.
