-
-This document describes the purpose of metadata and how is being used in helium and
-how it can be used by the customer.
-
-Overview
-========
-
-Metadata is process to find the errors, warnings from the output log differnt section of the build
-and store it to the database, which could be used during each stage of the build to process efficiently
-and send details to diamonds, used for signaling, and generating summary file.
-
-
-Metadata Details
-================
-
-1. Metadatarecord : Which is used to store the errors, warnings information to the database
-
-    1.1. It takes the metadatainput (the type of log parsing to be used), currently supported parsing are
-       
-       a. sbsmetadatainput - sbs log processing (based on xml processing)
-       
-       b. textmetadatainput - general text log processing (based on text processing)
-       
-       c. policylogmetadatainput - policy log output processing (based on xml processing)
-       
-       d. antlogmetadatainput - ant log output processing (based on text processing)
-       
-       e. abldlogmetadatainput - abld log output processing (based on text processing)
-       
-       Please see ant doc for more details on metadatarecord.
-
-   1.2 It takes the fileset containing list of log files
-   
-   1.3 It takes the metadata filter, list of regular expression for searching strings.
-   
-Metadata Filters
-================
-
-This document describes the usage of metadata filter to change the severity level during different stages of the build.
-
-Overview
---------
-
-Metadata filters are set of regular expressions used to match the text of the build output and process the errors, categorize it,
-and used to generate the output for diamonds, summary file, email output. Predefined set of ids are defined for each stage of the
-build. For example for raptor compilation filter is defined as below,
-
-The default definition of filterset.sbs is
-
-.. code-block:: xml
-
-    <hlm:metadatafilterset id="filterset.sbs">
-        <metadatafilterset refid="filterset.common" />
-    </hlm:metadatafilterset>
-
-
-which is using the common definition which is,
-
-.. code-block:: xml
-
-    <hlm:metadatafilterset id="filterset.common">
-        <metadatafilterset filterfile="${helium.dir}/config/metadata_regex.csv" />
-    </hlm:metadatafilterset>
-
-
-The complete list of predefined ids for various stages of the build are defined in this file,
-
-helium/config/metadata_filter_config_default.xml
-
-Each ID can be overridden to provide additional regular expression to control the results of the build for different stages.
-
-Two ways to add the regular expressions
----------------------------------------
-
- - Adding more than one regular expression
-
-Define your own csv file and override it in your configuration as below (add this after importing helium.ant.xml file),
-
-.. code-block:: xml
-
-    <hlm:metadatafilterset id="filterset.sbs">
-        <metadatafilterset filterfile="${s60.config}/config/metadata_regex.csv" />
-    </hlm:metadatafilterset>
-
- - Adding just one regular expression
-
-This can be done as below,
-
-.. code-block:: xml
-
-    <hlm:metadatafilterset id="filterset.sbs">
-      <metadatafilter priority="error" regex=".*Error\s*:\s+.*" description="sbs compilation error" />
-      <metadatafilterset filterfile="${helium.dir}/config/metadata_regex.csv" />
-    </hlm:metadatafilterset>
-
-Note
-----
-
-1. The order of metadatafilter / metadatafilterset is important, so the first one takes precedence than the second one.
-
-2. Order is also preserved in the csv file, the expressions which are defined first get precedence than the later one.
-
-3. All the regular expressions are JAVA patterns.
-         
-
-Usage in Helium
-===============
-
-Different build stages were processed and identified the type of output and added the metadatarecord
-task for each build stage and captured the output in the database. And after storing it, using fmpp 
-template the error information from database are processed to send to diamonds, raised signal accordingly.
-
-Usage
-=====
-
-Examples:
-    SBS comilation output in db:
-
-.. code-block:: xml
-    
-    <hlm:metadatarecord database="${metadata.dbfile}">
-        <hlm:sbsmetadatainput cleanLogFile="${sbs.clean.log.file}">
-            <fileset casesensitive="false" file="${sbs.log.file}"/>
-            <metadatafilterset refid="filterset.sbs" />
-        </hlm:sbsmetadatainput>
-    </hlm:metadatarecord>
-
-This example is to process sbs output. The metadatainput is sbsmetadatainput to process the sbs log file, takes the sbs.log.file
-uses the regular expression defined by filterset.sbs
-
-.. code-block:: xml
-
-    <hlm:metadatarecord database="${metadata.dbfile}">
-        <hlm:abldmetadatainput>
-            <fileset casesensitive="false" file="${build.log.dir}/${build.id}${cmaker.log.label}.export.cmaker.log" />
-            <metadatafilterset refid="filterset.compile" />
-        </hlm:abldmetadatainput>
-    </hlm:metadatarecord>
-
-This example process the cmaker output as abld output log. It takes abldmetadatainput as metadatainput
-and the logfile as ${build.log.dir}/${build.id}${cmaker.log.label}.export.cmaker.log and the regular
-expression is used from the reference filterset.compile.
-
-Similarly any of the log output file can be easily processed in a similar way.
