Lucene Library

Lucene library is a general purpose text search engine written entirely in PHP 5 by Zend. Since it stores its index on the file system and does not require a database server, it can add search capabilities to almost any PHP driven website. Lucene supports the following features:

• Ranked searching - best results returned first
• Many powerful query types: phrase queries, boolean queries, wildcard queries, proximity queries, range queries and many others.
• Search by specific field (e.g., title, author, contents)

This module provides zend lucene library for the module developers to use.
