Xapian discuss - Jul 2006 - Possible to use omega.cgi to search remote dbs?

Folks,

Is the omega.cgi tool able to search remote dbs that are setup with
xapian-tcpsvr? (e.g. xapian-tcpsrv --port 33333
/svr/hda1/xapian/delta/xap_delta_idx) What form of the arguments enable this (if
any) ?


Thanks
OSC

You can do this by setting up a stub database.

Create a file in your Xapian data directory i.e. xap_delta_idx. In this file
place the following
line (replacing your hostname).
remote hostname:33333

Test it by changing the DB= parameter in the omega.cgi url.
omega.cgi?DB=xap_delta_idx

You need to create a "stub database", which is just a text file
listing
the parameters for one (or more) databases.  See the documentation for
the format - I posted a URL to the list a few weeks ago.
