Forrest and Lucene

[Antonio Gallardo <ag...@agsoftware.dnsalias.com>]

Hi:

What is the current status of Lucene? If it works would be nice to
integrate it into forrest.

Since forrest is oriented to writing docs. I think a search engine is
welcome to allow users search into the docs.

Of course we can create a switch to include lucene into the generated
webapp or not.

What you think?

Best Regards,

Antonio Gallardo

Hi

The bug was fixed in the last patch I sent, but there is some work to do
before it's finished. The status now is as follows: 

Lucene is working, but as it is indexing the filesystem some URLs (FAQ, TODO
and CHANGES) are not searched. Jeff Turner suggested to use cocoon xml
views, but I haven't had time to do it. 

Skins other than forrest-skin need to include the Lucene search box.

And finally, the search only works when the site is run from an app server
(i.e. tomcat). I need to write an applet or something like that ro run the
search from the static site.

I hope I'll have some free time next week to have a look at this, (unless
somebody else does it first ;) .

Reagrds.

Ramon

There is a bug already on this: #[FOR-9] Ramón Prades forward the code 
but I have not found the time to revise and added it to forrest, I 
wanted to added after the release, but if you have time, please feel 
free to do it.

Cheers,
