Session Goal

The goal of this session was to enhance the DirectoryProcessor class by integrating new functionalities for file indexing, metadata extraction, and automation through a watcher system.

Key Activities

  • Integrated the process_file_metadata() function into the index_files() method, improving file indexing and metadata extraction.
  • Enhanced the index_files() function to support batch-oriented text extraction and UUID assignment.
  • Conducted a compatibility analysis of the DirectoryProcessor with older code, identifying missing functionalities and proposing fixes.
  • Updated the chunk_files() method with improvements from the process_chunks() function.
  • Implemented an automated directory monitoring system using the watchdog library for continuous file indexing and chunking.
  • Integrated the watcher system into the DirectoryProcessor framework for real-time file processing.

Achievements

  • Successfully integrated metadata processing into file indexing.
  • Enhanced batch processing capabilities and error handling in the DirectoryProcessor.
  • Established an automated system for real-time file monitoring and processing.

Pending Tasks

  • Further testing and optimization of the watcher system for different directory structures.
  • Documentation updates for the new features and integrations.
