First cut at web-based Luke for contrib

Any takers to test this contrib layout before I commit it?
    http://www.inperspective.com/lucene/webluke.zip
This is a (17MB) zip file which you can unzip to a new "webluke" 
directory under your copy of lucene/contrib and then run the usual 
Lucene Ant build ( or at least "ant build-contrib").
You should then find under build/contrib/webluke/WebLuke.war plus a 
Jetty-based server in build/contrib/webluke/dist which can be started 
using java -jar start.jar. A Luke webapp should then be available on 
http://localhost:8080/WebLuke

I've tested building here on XP but want to check that the GWT compile 
task works ok for others as the Google compiler is packaged in a 
platform-specific windows jar. I've tested this ant build with the 
windows jar on a Linux box and all was OK so I'm guessing the 
platform-specific bits of the google dev tools are related to the 
browser choices used in their "hosted" dev mode rather than the 
Java-to-Javascript compiler.

I need to add Apache licenses to all the source yet and tidy some 
superfluous files but otherwise it feels just about ready to contribute.

Cheers
Mark

Yes, didn't mean jar, meant zip...or tar.

I guess this may not be a sticky point for most people.

For me, I just get knee jerk seeing the dist size quadruple for a 
feature, that is in reality a very small part of the dist.

I am not arguing against adding it, just noting my stomach drop. Take it 
for what you will. It wouldn't stop me from downloading Lucene.

I wouldn't worry about it too much.  The binary distribution probably  
should just contain the built WAR (and Jetty?) and the source dist can  
have everything.

The 17 MB bundle I provided is essentially the source plus dependencies, 
the bulk of which is jars, mainly the compile-time dependency 
gwt-dev-windows.jar weighing in at 10MB.

The built WAR file is only 1.5 meg.
The WAR file bundled with Jetty (as a convenience) is 8 meg.

It may be possible to use Proguard or something like that to try slim 
down the gwt-dev-windows.jar.

Cheers,
Mark

You mean the release tar file, not the jar, right?  Is the size of the 
release really an issue for folks?

Compiled and ran it on Vista. Very cool. I am also a huge GWT fan.

This is a great start. Only issue I ran into was also the scrolling 
issue when selecting the drive...but based on the TODO: comments, it 
appears you have seen that.

Grant:
It doesn't ask permission to read your hard drive because a webapp 
running in Jetty is reading the server hard drive and sending the info 
to GWT with ajax rpc calls.

My only concern is with the size increase this will give to the Lucene 
jar. Another 17 meg - yikes!

The zip doesn't have a parent dir, so I would put it under contrib/ 
webluke

Works for me on OS X 10.5 using Java 1.5.  Only minor annoyance is the  
expansion of directories when choosing the index directory in that it  
always scrolls back to the top, but heh, that is just a nit.

Also, doesn't it have to ask me for permission to access my hard  
drive?  Don't know about GWT, so maybe just my ignorance.

At any rate, I had it up and running and browsing my index in  
minutes.  And the Visualization of Zipfs law is really cool too, as is  
the vocab growth graph!

Very nice work and I imagine it will only get better.  +1 for adding  
it to contrib!
