Indexing and Searching Contents of Uploaded File

sofiya - October 3, 2004 - 09:04

I have written a simple module that will index and search the contents of uploaded files (doc,xls,pdf,rtf and txt) using the very powerful and fast (IMHO) swish-e search engine (http://www.swish-e.org). This module requires swish-e and filters (for doc, xls, rtf and txt) programs installed in the server. I know, i know... this is not ideal in a shared environment where you dont have a total control of your server. This is ideal though in an intranet website (where you have control of your server) where a lot of documents uploading (manual, etc) happens.
If anyone out there interested, just say 'aye' :) and will try to upload this in CVS.

... next step then is to get an account for cvs upload. Currently though, works with Drupal 4.4 but im working on it to work 4.5 when the final release is available.

How long...
