[jira] [Updated] (CONNECTORS-1584) regex documentation

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1584?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Tim Steenbeke updated CONNECTORS-1584:
--------------------------------------
    Description: 
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 [user@manifoldcf.apache.org|mailto:user@manifoldcf.apache.org] but this mail adress returns a failure notice.
