TurboLucene is a TurboGears extension that allows applications to easily use the PyLucene full-text search engine.

Project description

TurboLucene

About

TurboLucene is a library that allows TurboGears applications to use PyLucene for full text searching. It features a simple interface and takes care of all the nasty threading issues that exist between PyLucene and CherryPy (which is used by TurboGears).

It now also features multi-lingual support for Czech, Danish, German, Greek, English, Spanish, Finnish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Norwegian, Portuguese, Brazilian, Russian, Swedish, and Chinese, including pre-configured stopwords for most languages.

Requirements

  • PyLucene 2.0.0 or better

  • TurboGears 1.0 or better

Thanks to setuptools, TurboGears and it’s dependencies will be installed automatically, if necessary. However, PyLucene must be downloaded and installed manually.

TurboLucene is not very demanding and may work with earlier versions of both PyLucene and TurboGears, but other versions have not been tested.

Installation

TurboLucene uses setuptools, so installation is as easy as:

easy_install TurboLucene

or:

python setup.py install

For more installation options, try:

python setup.py --help

Manual Download

Limitations

TurboLucene is still in early stages of development. It has not been optimised, extensively tested, benchmarked or profiled for performance or memory usage. Finally, there are no test cases yet.

The plan is to eliminate these limitations, eventually.

Patches and suggestions are welcome! :-)

Thanks

Special thanks goes out to all the brilliant and hard working people of the TurboGears and PyLucene projects. Without their tireless efforts, this project would not exist!

Also thanks to everyone in the Open Source and Free Software communities. I really believe the spirit and philosophy of the FLOSS movement will change the world. I am happy to be able to give a little back.
