I'm planning to add multiple-database support for searches to my "Xappy" python wrapper (more on this wrapper later, but for now, see http://code.google.com/p/xappy for details). This is reasonably straightforward, because Xapian supports this nicely: except that "Xappy" generates a "fieldname->prefix" mapping automatically. The prefix which corresponds

I want to be able to do searches with FLAG_PARTIAL and some without. Most searches without but with the PARTIAL for an autocomplete widget. I'm using xappy and I can't find where to send the flag when I build up the query. The docs talk of setting up the database with or without FLAG_PARTIAL but that's probably not what I want. Peter

Hello, I have a corpus that I have indexed with xapian/xappy and I would now like to generate a corpus-specific list of stopwords. (This is a technical corpus, so a typical stopword list wouldn't be helpful.) My first thought was to ask the xapian database for a list of terms followed by their frequency. My intuition is that I could probably bring together a list of stopwords by examining

Hi, I'm experiencing problems when doing phrase searches with adjacent repeated terms. Example: if I search for 'curtain curtain' and there are documents that matches the query, they aren't returned. But, if I search for 'curtain nice curtain' and there are documents that matches this query, it works ok. attached there is a python program that shows the problem. I tried

Hi there, My web app uses Xapian via the PHP bindings. I'm getting this error thrown occasionally when atempting to instantiate a XapianDatabase object for searching. DatabaseCorruptError: Expected block 107 to be level 1, not 0 Here's the line that invokes it: $database = new XapianDatabase(PROJROOT.'/data/xapian/posts'); And my version is xapian-core 1.2.3 with matchspy.

Hello, I'm trying to index some blog stuff through python bindings. I'd like to know how to add some informations (url, title, date, and so on) so that I can reach them through a xapian.Enquire object.. I believe it's something to be set in xapian.TermGenerator(), but... I can't manage to find which function. I'm waiting for something like : xtermgen.add_meta('url',

what is the fastest way to fetch results which are sorted by timestamp ? i want to use xapian as my search engine , use add_boolean_term(something) and add_value(0,sortable_serialise(get_timestamp())) to a doc. search through enquire.set_weighting_scheme(xapian.BoolWeight()) and enquire.set_sort_by_value(0,True) to ensure that the results are sorted by the timestamp. This method is ok , but

Currenly we have our Xapian-based search engine search photos from our collection only with the image's name and tags. Thus, I'm wondering that except for these text contents attached to the image, whether Xapian can actually support any kind of image search? Thanks for any suggestion!

Hey all, I went through the docs in Ferret''s page, plus a quick search through the email list (thread titles), and I couldn''t find any info on how to have Ferret storing it''s data using UTF-8. In the scenario I would use it, nothing''s being stored outside (like external databases). So it''s just how Ferret would do it that I''m interesting in

I came across this benchmark between Xapian & Solr: http://www.anur.ag/blog/2009/03/xapian-and-solr/ According to the benchmark, a doc set that took Solr 34 min to index took Xapian 7 hours. Solr's index is also much smaller - 2.5GB to Xapian's 8.9GB. I'm new to Xapian. Just wondering if results like these are typical? Is indexing speed & size a known issue in Xapian? Or is
