I am pleased to announce that version 0.5 of LIMO, the Lucene Index Monitor, has been released.
LIMO is a web application that allows you to browse your Lucene indexes remotely. It is an ideal companion for Lucene applications that run in a servlet container. The 0.5 release adds some cool new features such as: * More index summary statistics, including index version number, deletion status, number of documents, number of fields, number of indexed fields, and number of unindexed fields. * Querying the index. * Display expanded wild card and range queries (using Query.rewrite) with term count so you can see how many terms a complex query is expanded to. This is particularly helpful if you are trying to track down an annoying TooManyClauses exception. * Query timing to show how expensive queries are. * Estimated query memory consumption (as given by the formula in this message: http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&msgId=1757461). * Query result count. * Query result explanation. * Stored field reconstruction as in Luke. * Highlighting of matching terms in search results and reconstructed documents using Mark Harwood's library. LIMO requires Java 1.4 or later and a servlet container. Download it from SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/limo/ LIMO is still ready to go out of the box (er, war file). Just edit the web.xml to point LIMO to your indexes. Thanks to Julien Nioche for starting a great and very useful project and letting me join it; and to Andrzej Bialecki for Luke from which I appropriated several ideas and his GrowableStringArray class. If you are interested in getting involved, LIMO is now available in SourceForge CVS. Regards, Luke Francl
