windows - list of various system-files safe to ignore when implementing a virtual file system -
i'm working on webdav-server presents information database in virtual filesystem.
so user able create files on server , automagically created in db.
now user connects server, oss tend create own metadata-files/folders (thinking thumbs.db, desktop.ini, .fseventsd, ds_store, ...)
this files clutter database - , tend bring down performance (osx example lot of indexing folder opened, means tons of hits against database)
so performances , cleanliness's-sake i'm looking "complete" list of (meta)files/folders created various os - "safe" suppressed server.
my list far:
//todo: rid of system files /* *** everywhere * thumbs.db * desktop.ini * .ds_store * .desktop * albumart*.jpg * folder.jpg * ._[parentfoldername] // e.g. /foo/bar/._bar * ._[existingfoldername] // e.g. /foo/._bar * ._[existingfilename] // e.g. /foo/bar/._baz (baz legit file inside bar) * ._. // ?!? *** root * system volume information * .fseventsd * $recycling.bin * $recycle.bin * recycled * .trashes * hiberfil.sys * pagefile.sys * .hidden * mach_kernel * backups.backupdb * contents * *** special * .metadata_never_index // fake file in root * // (should keep osx indexing) */ my existing test-structure osx was:
/mariodemo/ /franktest/ /testitemrelation/ /.metadata_never_index /mariodemo/alphabetical/ /mariodemo/hierarchical/ here files osx requests when opening /mariodemo/:
your list pretty complete, guess. add following unless want filter out particular file types:
.ds_store? ._* .spotlight-v100 .documentrevisions-v100 .fseventsd .mobilebackups icon? __macosx ehthumbs.db desktop.ini *.desktop *.bak .*~ *~ i took these project called ignoramus. relevant file patterns here, in emacs format. list exact matches printed below, that's took these from:
