Hi guys,<br><br>I started working on ticket #77 (Moin1.6 related), and while searching for the current additions to the wiki, i came across with this:<br><pre>New Features:<br> * Added Xapian (see <a href="http://xapian.org/">
http://xapian.org/</a>) based indexed search code.<br> To use this:<br> * Install xapian-core and xapian-bindings on your machine.<br> We used 0.9.4, but newer code should hopefully work, too.<br> *
cfg.xapian_search = True<br> * Execute this to build the index:<br> $ moin ... index build # indexes pages and attachments<br> $ moin ... index build --files=files.lst # same plus a list of files<br>
You should run those commands as the same user you use for your wiki,<br> usually this is the webserver userid, e.g.:<br> $ sudo -u www-data moin --config=... --wiki-url=<a href="http://wiki.example.org/">
wiki.example.org/</a> \<br> index build --files=files.lst<br> * New searches:<br> - LanguageSearch: language:de<br> - CategorySearch: category:Homepage<br> - MimetypeSearch: mimetype:image/png (for attachments/files)
<br> - DomainSearch: domain:underlay or domain:standard<br> - History Search: available in advanced ui<br> Note: Some currently only available when Xapian is used<br> * New config options:<br> xapian_search 0 enables xapian-powered search
<br> xapian_index_dir None directory for xapian indices<br> (can be shared for wiki farms)<br> xapian_stemming 1 toggles usage of stemmer, fallback<br> to False if no stemmer installed
<br> search_results_per_page 10 determines how many hits should be<br> shown on a fullsearch action<br> xapian_index_history False indexes all revisions of pages to<br> allow searching in their history
</pre><br>Do we want to try this ? if so it needs to be packaged and added to extras.<br>According to <a href="http://xapian.org">xapian.org</a> download page "Fabrice Colin has built
<a href="http://xapian.org/RPM/fc6/">RPM packages for Fedora Core 6</a>
- there are binary packages (for i386, x86_64, and ppc) and source RPMs.", but since its not on our repos, i prefer not to use it until so.<br><br>Also i've created a page in <a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/MoinDev">
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/MoinDev</a> so that we can keep track of our work, and requests that other teams might have.<br><br><br>Thanks,<br>Paulo<br>
