Hi Doug,

Do anyone working on this issue? If none, I will go on.
I suppose it is not hard to support "indexing locally and searching remotely".


A simple way to implement this would be to change the protocol-file plugin to handle http urls (add protocol-name="http" in plugin.xml), then modify FileResponse.java to optionally accept http urls and convert them to pathnames relative to some root directory. Does that make sense?

That sounds good. Perfect would be if the conversion to pathnames would be configurable in the global config.
Does this also cover the following scenario?
I want to index local files and web sites from the net containing the same topic. Later I want to merge these two segments to put it on the search server.
During search I want to narrow the search to only my local files for example. As far as I understand this would be done using the url option in the search.
But this would succeed only if your files are indexed like this.
