You can build an application for full-text retrieval for external files with TextIndexNG and ExternalFile.
what do u think of writing his own application which stores different content type depending on the file type. id3 tag for mp3s, <title> and <bod>...</body> for html etc. implementing the indexing procedure in c++. the results could be saved in several tables in a mysql database. because the querys would be not too complicated the speed of the querys might be acceptable.
I agree with Maik. There are already enough systems outside that could be plugged with ZOpe by writing the corresponding Python binding. But it does not make sense to write a complete new indexer architecture. That's a pure waste of men power. Instead feel free to contribute and provide an existing project. -aj --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Andreas Jung http://www.andreas-jung.com - - EMail: andreas at andreas-jung.com - - "Life is too short to (re)write parsers" - ---------------------------------------------------------------------
