The recent thread about http://restpose.org/ (which looks like a cool project) reminded me that I had not yet announced the existence of Dezi[0] to this group. Dezi is a search server similar to RestPost and Apache Solr that supports OpenSearch[1] XML and JSON response types. You can index any format of document supported by SWISH::Filter[3] via a REST API. Clients are available already in Perl and PHP. The Xapian backend[2] is available via Search::OpenSearch::Engine::Xapian, which relies on the Search::Xapian Perl bindings. Contributors, users, critics all welcome. cheers, pek [0] http://dezi.org/ [1] http://www.opensearch.org/ [2] http://dezi.org/node/4 [3] https://metacpan.org/module/SWISH::Filter -- Peter Karman . http://peknet.com/ . peter at peknet.com
