The purpose of this document is to outline plans for
|
|
|
|
|
making <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene">
|
|
|
|
|
Jakarta Lucene</a> work as a more general drop-in
|
|
|
|
|
component. It makes the assumption that this is an
|
|
|
|
|
objective for the Lucene user and development community.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The best reference is <a href="http://www.htdig.org">
|
|
|
|
|
htDig</a>, though it is not quite as sophisticated as
|
|
|
|
|
Lucene, it has a number of features that make it
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
desirable. It however is a traditional c-compiled app
|
|
|
|
|
which makes it somewhat unpleasant to install on some
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
platforms (like Solaris!).
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
This plan is being submitted to the Lucene developer
|
|
|
|
|
community for an initial reaction, advice, feedback and
|
|
|
|
|
consent. Following this it will be submitted to the
|
|
|
|
|
Lucene user community for support. Although, I'm (Andy
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
Oliver) capable of providing these enhancements by
|
|
|
|
|
myself, I'd of course prefer to work on them in concert
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
with others.

|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
While I'm outlaying a fairly large feature set, these can
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
be implemented incrementally of course (and are probably
|
|
|
|
|
best if done that way).

The goal is to provide features to Lucene that allow it
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
to be used as a drop-in search engine. It should provide
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
many of the features of projects like <a href="http://www.htdig.org">htDig</a> while surpassing
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
them with unique Lucene features and capabilities such as
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
easy installation on and java-supporting platform,
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
and support for document fields and field searches. And
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
of course, <a href="http://apache.org/LICENSE">
|
|

a pragmatic software license</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|

<p>
|

To reach this goal we'll implement code to support the
|
|
|
|
|
following objectives that augment but do not replace
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
the current Lucene feature set.

Document Location Independence - meaning mapping

2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00

real contexts to runtime contexts.
|
|
|
|
|
Essentially, if the document is at
|
|
|
|
|
/var/www/htdocs/mydoc.html, I probably want it
|
|
|
|
|
indexed as

http://www.bigevilmegacorp.com/mydoc.html.

Standard methods of creating central indicies -
|
|
|
|
|
file system indexing is probably less useful in
|
|
|
|
|
many environments than is *remote* indexing (for
|
|
|
|
|
instance http). I would suggest that most folks
|
|
|
|
|
would prefer that general functionality be
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
supported by Lucene instead of having to write
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
code for every indexing project. Obviously, if
|
|
|
|
|
what they are doing is *special* they'll have to
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
code, but general document indexing across
|
|
|
|
|
web servers would not qualify.

Document interpretation abstraction - currently
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
one must handle document object construction via
|
|
|
|
|
custom code. A standard interface for plugging
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
in format handlers should be supported.

Crawlers are data source executable code. They crawl a file

2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00

2002-02-24 10:58:41 -05:00

These standard crawlers may not make ALL of Lucene's

2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|

functionality available, though they should be able to
|
|

make most of it available through configuration.

A class that maps standard fields from the
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
DocumentFactories into *fields* in the Document objects
|
|
|
|
|
they create. I suggest that a regular expression system
|
|
|
|
|
or xpath might be the most universal way to do this.
|
|
|
|
|
For instance if perhaps I had an XML factory that
|
|
|
|
|
represented XML elements as fields, I could map content
|
2002-06-08 16:43:01 -04:00
|
|
|
from particular fields to their fields or suppress them
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
entirely. We could even make this configurable.

suppress=*

|

author=content:g/author\:\ ........................................./

title=content:g/title\:\ ........................................./

In this example we map html documents such that all
|
|
|
|
|
fields are suppressed but author and title. We map
|
|
|
|
|
author and title to anything in the content matching
|
|
|
|
|
author: (and x characters). Okay my regular expresions
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
suck but hopefully you get the idea.

We might also consider eliminating the DocumentFactory
|
|
|
|
|
entirely by making an AbstractDocument from which the
|
|
|
|
|
current document object would inherit from. I
|
|
|
|
|
experimented with this locally, and it was a relatively
|
|
|
|
|
minor code change and there was of course no difference
|
|
|
|
|
in performance. The Document Factory classes would
|
|
|
|
|
instead be instances of various subclasses of
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
AbstractDocument.

While this goes slightly beyond what HTDig provides by
|
|
|
|
|
providing field mapping (where HTDIG is just interested
|
|
|
|
|
in Strings/numbers wherever they are found), it provides
|
|
|
|
|
at least what I would need to use this as a drop-in for
|
|
|
|
|
most places I contract at (with the obvious exception of
|
|
|
|
|
a default set of content handlers which would of course

|
|

develop naturally over time).

I am able to certainly contribute to this effort if the
|
|
|
|
|
development community is open to it. I'd suggest we do
|
|
|
|
|
it iteratively in stages and not aim for all of this at
|
2002-02-23 17:03:39 -05:00
|
|
|
once (for instance leave out the field mapping at first).

Anyhow, please give me some feedback, counter
|
|
|
|
|
suggestions, let me know if I'm way off base or out of
