Re: nutch and C#/.net

[John Whelan <jo...@whelanlabs.com>]

Hello,


I have not heard of any attempt to port Nutch to any other
language. The effort would be greater than just porting the Java code. From
what I understand, Nutch, (and underlying components) are dependent on
Linux/UNIX OS commands. I believe that a complete porting of the application
would be difficult, and I doubt that there is sufficient ‘critical mass’ to
undertake the effort. My understanding is that the ‘best
practice’ to running Nutch on Windows is to use Cygwin.


Why am I responding in this thread? As it turns out, I had
the same issue (running Nutch on Windows). As a solution, I built a wrapper
to
Nutch that included an installer and an administrative UI in order to make
it simpler
for Windows administrators. If you are interested, you can find out more
about
what I did at 
http://whelanlabs.home.comcast.net/~whelanlabs/content/SearchEngineManager.htm
my
web site . If you do try out the WhelanLabs wrapper for Nutch, please let me
know what
you think; I’d love constructive feedback, so that I can apply it to future
improvements.


Regards,

John
