(Warning: It took me 1900 seconds to index the forum, go make coffee
|
|
|
|
|
whilst you wait.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Forum search functions changed to use 'get_recordset' instead of
|
|
|
|
|
'get_records', for speed reasons. This provides a significant improvement,
|
|
|
|
|
but indexing is still slow - getting data from the database and Zend's
|
|
|
|
|
tokenising _seem_ to be the prime suspects at the moment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/search/tests/ added - index.php can be used to see which modules are
|
|
|
|
|
ready to be included in the search index, and it informs you of any
|
|
|
|
|
errors - should be a prerequisite for indexing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Search result pagination added to query.php, will default to 20 until
|
|
|
|
|
an admin page for the search module is written.

|
|
|
|
|
Search-enabling functions moved out've the mod's lib.php files and into
|
|
|
|
|
/search/documents/mod_document.php - this requires the search module to
|
|
|
|
|
operate without requiring modification of lib files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SearchDocument base class improved, and the way module documents extend
|
|
|
|
|
it. A custom-data field has been added to allow modules to add any custom
|
|
|
|
|
data they wish to be stored in the index - this field is serialised into
|
|
|
|
|
the index as a binary field.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Database field 'type' renamed to 'doctype' to match the renaming in the
|
|
|
|
|
index, 'type' seems to be a reserved word in Lucene. Several index field
|
|
|
|
|
names change to be more descriptive (cid -> course_id). URLs are now
|
|
|
|
|
stored in the index, and don't have to be generated on the fly during
|
|
|
|
|
display of query results.

This is the initial release (prototype) of Moodle's new search module -
|
|
|
|
|
so basically watch out for sharp edges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The structure has not been finalised, but this is what is working at the
|
|
|
|
|
moment, when I start looking at other content to index, it will most likely
|
|
|
|
|
change. I don't recommend trying to make your own content modules indexable,
|
|
|
|
|
at least not until the whole flow is finalised. I will be implementing the
|
|
|
|
|
functions needed to index all of the default content modules on Moodle, so
|
|
|
|
|
expect that around mid-August.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wiki pages were my goal for this release, they can be indexed and searched,
|
|
|
|
|
but not updated or deleted at this stage (was waiting for ZF 0.14 actually).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I need to check the PostgreSQL sql file, I don't have a PG7 install lying
|
|
|
|
|
around to test on, so the script is untested.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To index for the first time, login as an admin user and browse to /search/index.php
|
|
|
|
|
or /search/stats.php - there will be a message and a link telling you to go index.
