Thanks Stanley for contributing and sharing this add-on
JosMaccabiani and
StanleyKnutson: I added both of you to the
TWikiCommunityGroup so that you can rename and delete content. Please review the doc on that topic.

Stanley, this looks tremendously interesting. How big a TWiki have you tried it on? What's the load like when the index is being built?
- StanleyKnutson : The twiki used has ~3000 topics and attachments. I have twiki and the indexing on the same machine (no network issues). Load is about 8-10% CPU for the entire hour or so it takes. IMPORTANT: we use
speedy-cgi
with twiki, it is noticably slower without it.

The current version (2.4.3) doesn't support incremental indexing, but their development notes state that one of the goals for 2.4.4 is:
- Stabilize the --enable-incremental (BTREE) feature.

The attachment generates an error. gunzip finds a tar but the tar won't untar.
- StanleyKnutson : Better to use
tar xvfz
(on linux) to untar and unzip at the same time.

it might be worth trying to gunzip
twice, it could be that it's a case of
PluginAddonsCorruptWhenDownloading

Hi
MichaelLoflin,
Just do the following ( I did it on linux)!
[1]. gunzip exmple-swish-scripts.tgz
[2]. mv exmple-swish-scripts.tar exmple-swish-scripts.gz
[3]. gunzip exmple-swish-scripts.gz
[4]. mv exmple-swish-scripts exmple-swish-scripts.tar
[5]. tar xvf exmple-swish-scripts.tar
BTW-- I have spent more than 1 hr 30 minutes, could not use this plugin... i have to retry it agin.

StanleyKnutson: Please elaborate on the problems you found -- I have added documentation on how to test the spidering, which is where the main problems arise.

It took me about 10 hours to set up swish to index twiki in the first place.

I'm able to setup Swish-E with my TWiki installation. Does anyone have an integrated solution for the Swish-E search and search result pages, so that they look like just another TWiki topic/page? The seamless integration is beyond my expertise. Thanks.

I installed Swish-E however it only indexes the main page from the Main web. Any ideas what I need to do to get it index all pages and all webs

I've created a topic on
Codev.IndexingTWiki to discuss support for this add-on.

Stanley, I added a SHORTDESCRIPTION to the "Add-On Info" section so that this add-on is represented properly in the
AddOnPackage topic and query topics. Please feel free to take this into the next release.

I looked at installing this add-on. It appears to have been abandoned by it's author. The instructions are really only suitable for an expert admin, and installation is a bit of a pig. I would warn anyone without strong admin skills to avoid this add-on until it is repackaged properly. Also, it really needs to use a proper twiki crawler, such as that in the
PublishContrib, instead of indexing via http requests.
