XmlFileCommitter

Local files of XML format.

Notes

File Format

The generated file content will contain any number of "upsert" and "delete" entries. Both types will contain the document "reference" and "metadata". The metadata is made of names followed by a value. Multi-value fields will appear as repeated entries with the same name and different value. The "upsert" entries also have a "content" tag. Like this example containing 1 "upsert" and 1 "delete":

<docs>
<upsert>
<reference>https://example.com/my-document.html</reference>
<metadata>
<meta name="title">My Example Document</meta>
<meta name="keywords">Exemple</meta>
<meta name="keywords">Demo</meta>
</metadata>
<content>
Document content goes here.
</content>
</upsert>
<delete>
<reference>https://example.com/i-was-deleted.html</reference>
<metadata>
<meta name="contentType">text/html</meta>
</metadata>
</delete>
</docs>
