 * metadata extraction modules. Third party applications should not link
 * against libtracker-extract, because its API may change at any time.
 *
 * If you want to insert metadata into the Tracker store from a 3rd party
 * application, look at the TrackerDecorator class from libtracker-miner.

/**
 * tracker_extract_get_metadata:
 * @info: a #TrackerExtractInfo object
 *
 * This function must be provided by ALL extractors. This is merely
 * the declaration of the function which must be written by each
 * extractor.
 *
 * This is checked by tracker-extract by looking up the symbols for
 * each started plugin and making sure this function exists.
 *
 * The @info parameter contains required information for the
 * extraction and a location to store the results. The
 * tracker_extract_info_get_metadata_builder() function returns a
 * #TrackerSparqlBuilder constructed through
 * tracker_sparql_builder_new_embedded_insert(). The subject
 * is already set to be the file URN, so implementations of this
 * function should just provide predicate/object(s) pairs. The
 * triples contained in this object at the end of the function will be
 * merged with further file information from miners.
 *
 * Whenever any of the inserted triples rely on entities that
 * should also be provided by this extractor (for example, album
 * or artist information from a song), such insertions should be
 * added to the preupdate object returned by
 * tracker_extract_info_get_preupdate_builder(). This is a
 * #TrackerSparqlBuilder created through
 * tracker_sparql_builder_new_update().
 *
 * NOTE: If upgrading from 0.10, this function replaces the old
 * function named tracker_extract_get_data() and has a few subtle
 * differences. First, there is a return value for success and the
 * parameters are contained in @info instead of being passed
 * individually. Second, the extractor is passed the detected
 * MIME type of the file being extracted.
 *
 * Returns: %TRUE if the extraction succeeded, %FALSE otherwise.
 *
 * Since: 0.12
