[jira] [Issue Comment Edited] (TIKA-847) Add regular expression support to the MagicDetector

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-847?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13187587#comment-13187587 ]

---------------------------------------------------------------

Under TIKA-86, [~kkrugler] suggested we use the Lucene FSM RegEx engine (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1606 and http://search-lucene.com/jd/lucene/org/apache/lucene/search/RegexpQuery.html). However, I believe this code is not yet in a stable Lucene version (4.0-SNAPSHOT only) and so would rather we defer that optimisation to a later date (under a separate ticket).

> Following on from TIKA-86, we would like to add support for regular expressions to the MagicDetector. This would allow more signatures to be re-used from more sources (e.g. the file(1) command). As part of the SCAPE Project, we have added this functionality to our own Tika branch (e.g. https://github.com/openplanets/tika/commit/b8de9e77c8b432788e3f73a4dbccca8ea044b503) and are working to tidy this up to make a clean patch we can submit here.
> BTW, are there any patch submission guidelines or coding standards we should check our work against first?
