This week's book giveaway is in the General Computing forum. We're giving away four copies of Arduino in Action and have Martin Evans, Joshua Noble, and Jordan Hochenbaum on-line! See this thread for details.
I just need a simple web engine for my web site, that would index my pages by crawling them, and then would give me some simple API to proccess and display queries.
I was looking at quite a few of them:
Egothor - just too complicated configuration, not something that I want for a simple web site.
Java Search Engine - not only is it free with closed source code, but it also doesn't work (when you follow instructions 100%)
Nutch - couldn't figure out how to get it to work.
Writing my own would be way too time consuming. Can anybody recommend anything?
Can anyone point to a clean example of using Lucene to re-index one changed file? I saw some examples that I could not follow and gave up and reindexed my whole site every 15 minutes. That's a pretty yucky solution.
A good question is never answered. It is not a bolt to be tightened into place but a seed to be planted and to bear more seed toward the hope of greening the landscape of the idea. John Ciardi
