Indexing OpenDocument and PDF files (include files in the search) #235

Open gerdneuman opened 9 years ago

gerdneuman commented 9 years ago

We're a group of 30 people who have used crabgrass on we.riseup.net for the last 3, 4 years. Really great to see that development continues now!

One missing feature that has always bugged us all the time is that uploaded LibreOffice files (e.g. meeting meetings, strategic documents and others) are not included in the search.

I think the same goes for PDF files (where pdftotext might be used).

weird! this used to work, I never noticed that it stopped working. The code is there to support this, I guess we just need to add a test to ensure it is working.

If indexing is something that can be easily fixed, can't this get a higher priority? This seems like a bug with high impact.

We have about 300 documents (meeting minutes, pdfs, etc). Crabgrass feels like a big dump of files where nothing can be find...

I'll investigate why this does not work right now. Fix might take some time though because i'm in the process of upgrading crabgrass to rails 4.2 right now and the udate of the live server will take some work.

We're mostly tracking issues on gitlab these days. So the commit that closed htis issue was actually meant to close this issue
