Open geekan opened 10 years ago

Now we have a search engine, consists of haystack and whoosh. Indexes are defined in vine_comment/search_indexes.py. Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/search/ to make a search.

NOTE: we need to build indexes periodically. Use a crontab if needed.

geekan commented 10 years ago

./manage.py rebuild_index or ./manage.py update_index may help you.

And note we should install two more apps by pip. Check this commit: https://github.com/vine-comment/vine/commit/e1479bb4ad5ca6bd742b11374689132c1304f963

reading for some topics like http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2271600/elasticsearch-sphinx-lucene-solr-xapian-which-fits-for-which-usage and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10213009/solr-vs-elasticsearch and http://solr-vs-elasticsearch.com/ , I think it may be better to use elastic search or solr.

Whoosh doesn't support facet now.

Record: Maybe we should need new version of haystack. Use pip install git+https://github.com/toastdriven/django-haystack.git to install it.

geekan commented 10 years ago

Currently the haystack's maintainer is not active. So maybe we could only hack haystack by ourselves, or use another backend instead of whoosh.

ElasticSearch may be a good choice.

Note that after installing elasticsearch binary, you should run pip install elasticsearch
