Revision 242 (by dpavlin, 2004/03/08 18:07:37) creating hidra branch of code
 
this is a free re-implementation of our searcher described at

http://webpac.sf.net/

This code is written by Dobrica Pavlinusic <dpavlin@rot13.org> and
released under GPL v2 or later license.


Status as of 2004-03-08:

This code is ready for production use. We have 7 live production
installations.


All commands have documentation embeded in them: you can try

$ perldoc all2xml.pl

to see it's usage.

### Working notes for documentation:

all2xml.conf:

Type must be defined by one of files in import_xml/. However, those
files can be in form type_something so that you can have multiple
xml files for same data source (e.g. isis).


### How to specify fields which have to be searched in html templates?

Each query to swish database is consisted of *TWO* fields. Names
of fields are f[nr] and v[nr] where [nr] is number between 1 and 30.

Value for v field are names of tags in import_xml/*.xml file.
Value for f field is query which will be sent to swish.

If you need to show index for this field, your submit button should
have name f[nr]_index.

There are also other fields which are used specially. Best bet is
to do grep param WebPac.pm. However, you shouldn't need to modify
any other fields in html templates other than f[nr]* and v[nr].
If you do, it's a BUG. Please report it to us.
