Hi, me again.

I’m wondering why recoll doesn’t let you filter by mime type application/x-fsdirectory to just list directory results?

This is particularly useful for me because our historical archive system uses a path similar to:

` /media/raid/archive/90000 - 91000/Some random job name - 90123/ `

The below command returns no results.

recoll -t -n 0-10 -F "filename mtype mtime relevancyrating rcludi fbytes abstract" '90123 mime:application/x-fsdirectory'

Yet this command returns results as expected.

recoll -t -n 0-10 -F "filename mtype mtime relevancyrating rcludi fbytes abstract" '90123 mime:image/jpeg'

Searching with no filter returns all results including the directories.

And yes I know that I could filter the result set myself, but that would defeat the point of the pagination! :)

I’m using Ubuntu 12.04 and your PPA on the latest version.

Ok, I think that I found the issue and I have a possible workaround. Could you please try to add the following to ~/.recoll/mimeconf:

#!shell

[index]
application/x-fsdirectory = exec rclnull

You do not need to reindex, just test the query.

Sorry for the delay… Bitbucket isn’t emailing me for some reason.

Just tested that this solution works a treat, thanks!
