Re: Slide, Dasl and pdf

[Eirikur Hrafnsson]

There is a document somewhere in the Slide head which contains settings 
for the indexers (property and content) and the extractors 
(pdf,office...)
it's called Extractor-Domain.xml. You could take a look at that. Here 
are my working settings (from my Domain.xml):

.... (at the end of my <store> definition)
<contentindexer 
classname="org.apache.slide.index.lucene.LuceneContentIndexer">
<!-- indexpath is the name of the folder that Lucene creates under (if 
using tomcat) your tomcat/bin/ folder, unfortunately Slide does not 
support storing the Lucene index in the Slide repository :( so you must 
change this parameter if you have multiple contexts running so they 
don't collide -->
       <parameter name="indexpath">store/index/content</parameter>
<!-- asynchron makes the indexing happen in its own thread, not needed 
really unless you need really rapid writes to the slide store but not 
simultanious indexing -->
       <parameter name="asynchron">true</parameter>
  </contentindexer>
   <propertiesindexer 
classname="org.apache.slide.index.lucene.LucenePropertiesIndexer">
       <parameter name="indexpath">store/index/metadata</parameter>
       <parameter name="asynchron">true</parameter>

<!-- Here you define all your custom properties (if you have any) you 
want to index that you add to a resource with propPatchMethod, we have 
one extra property -->
       <configuration name="indexed-properties">
	       <property name="ContentType" namespace="IW:">
	        <text/>
	        <is-defined/>
	      </property>
       </configuration>
  </propertiesindexer>
 </store>

And then later in Domain.xml I add the extractors and set them to the 
paths we want to index, in our case just everything under /files
....
 <parameter name="versioncontrol-exclude"/>
    <parameter name="checkout-fork">forbidden</parameter>
    <parameter name="checkin-fork">forbidden</parameter>

    <!-- Extractor configuration -->
    <extractors>
    		<!--XML extractors-->
        <extractor 
classname="org.apache.slide.extractor.SimpleXmlExtractor" uri="/files">
<!-- BTW this extractor does NOT work if you have a namespace in your 
xml document, I have these settings here because someday it will...-->
            <configuration>
                <instruction 
namespace="http://xmlns.idega.com/block/article/xml"; 
property="headline" xpath="/article/headline/text()" />
                <instruction

xpath="/article/source/text()" />
                <instruction 
namespace="http://xmlns.idega.com/block/article/xml"; property="comment" 
xpath="/article/comment/text()" />
            </configuration>
        </extractor>
        <extractor 
classname="org.apache.slide.extractor.XmlContentExtractor" 
uri="/files"/>
        <!--XML extractors-->

        <!--PDF extractors-->
        <extractor classname="org.apache.slide.extractor.PDFExtractor" 
uri="/files" />
        <!--PDF extractors-->

        <!--Text extractors-->
        <extractor 
classname="org.apache.slide.extractor.TextContentExtractor" 
uri="/files" />
        <!--Text extractors-->

        <!--Office extractors-->
        <extractor 
classname="org.apache.slide.extractor.OfficeExtractor" uri="/files">
            <configuration>
                <instruction property="author" 
id="SummaryInformation-0-4" />
                <instruction property="application" 
id="SummaryInformation-0-18" />
            </configuration>
        </extractor>
        <extractor 
classname="org.apache.slide.extractor.MSWordExtractor" uri="/files"/>
        <extractor 
classname="org.apache.slide.extractor.MSExcelExtractor" uri="/files"/>
        <extractor 
classname="org.apache.slide.extractor.MSPowerPointExtractor" 
uri="/files"/>
        <!--Office extractors-->

    </extractors>
    <!-- Event configuration -->
    <events>
        <event classname="org.apache.slide.webdav.event.WebdavEvent" 
enable="true" />
        <event classname="org.apache.slide.event.ContentEvent" 
enable="true" />
...

And that's how we shave!

Thank u for replying Edmund.
Well, I'm using Slide 2.1
I didn't manage to get the Slide 2.2 via cvs. I read the "how-to" 
but I
don't see the 2.2 version, is it called "Slide_HEAD_PRE_MERGE", or
"SLIDE_HEAD_AFTER_EVENTS" or something like that ?
About the wiki "DASL Configuration", I don't know how to get the 
lucene
library needed (package org.apache.slide.index.*).
thanx for your help
Bertrand.
There is no 2.2 release, yet. The closest you get to 2.2 is the 
current
CVS HEAD.
That org.apache.slide.index package is in slide-stores-2.x.jar. It's 
there
even in 2.1, even though it appearantly does not work.

Maybe I should ask a different question on this list:
Does the LuceneIndexer that is currently in CVS HEAD work?
It does, the version in 2.1 does not.
-Eiki
Thanks. That's good to hear. I was about to give up.
Now I'd like to good back to the question I had earlier:
Do I need to add anything to my Domain.xml other than the 
<contentindexer ..>
element (as explained in the Wiki) to make the lucene indexer work?
