Hi Andi. Many thanks for your reply. The pydocs question I believe is
relevant. Has anyone assembled this type of documentation anywhere for
pylucene?
I'll post the other questions to the lists as you suggest. I am just
beginning with pylucene so I may bring forward some relevant python
questions once I experimented a bit more. I am currently working through
examples and reading what I can find about lucene online.
Regards,
David

Hi there. I have been working with semantic web type application for a
while and it appears to me pylucene could help me to get a much needed
speed boost. I have a couple of question to start.
My schema is fairly involved and has more than 100 elements. It would
be great to perform a search on any of these but how practical is that?
Should I be creating a summary type search using a smaller index of
say 10 - 12 fields and then have detailed search based on a larger
broader number of fields in a different index. Any recommendations
would be helpful. There is no doubt I will have to create a query
parser for my app.
Second questions is how can I get pydocs so I am aware of what
functionality exists and also syntax. I see examples in the samples
folder but some description of classes and methods is important. Is
this available somewhere?
My last initial question has to do with sorting. I see that there are
advanced possibilities with the indexes to sort and filter. How
advisable is using sort for large record sets. For example, say you
have got 20000 records returned from your search. Because this will
have a web interface I will only be showing first 20 likely so it will
be batching results. Is the sorting filtering highly memory intensive?
These are all good questions best asked of the
[email protected] mailing list. PyLucene is a compilation of
Java Lucene integrated with Python via SWIG. The pylucene-dev mailing
list can help you with python-specific Lucene questions and bugs. For
help about Lucene in general, please refer to these sources:
- [email protected]
don't let the 'java' in the name of that list put you off, none of your
questions are java or python specific.
- [email protected]
for help in extending or adapting Java Lucene.
- the book 'Lucene in Action' written by Erik Hatcher and Otis
Gospodnetic,
two of the Java Lucene developers. Most samples in this book were
ported
to PyLucene and are in its 'samples/LuceneInAction' directory.
