libstorage-translators provides a framework for translators that can take structured object data in the store (metadata and the actual data itself) and translate it to and from byte streams (such as files). The goal is not indexing files, but for providing a way to move files in and out of the store. So for example, if your friend sent you a PDF file by e-mail, you could drag that file into your local store and the libstorage-translators will automatically decompose the information for placing in the store (and of course extract lots of metadata like album name, description, image width, etc etc in the process). Currently I have only worked on the “importer” side of translators, not the “exporter”, so they are effectively like indexers. There are currently importers for: Doc Book?, HTML, any image format supported by gdk-pixbuf (JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF, and several more obscure formats), PDF, text, and any format supported by gstreamer (MP3, OGG, AVI, MPEG2, etc). Importers can also create thumbnails for the data for convenient display later. Storage also includes a renderer system for displaying the relevant metadata etc for different sorts of results to a query. A major drawback
