Hi, Ben Saller would know better, but there are already plugins for extracting text from pdf, odt and doc.
Alternatively, all metadata properties whose key finishes with :text should be indexed and be searchable with fulltext. In python it would be something like: self.metadata['summary:text'] = 'text I want to be indexed' Cheers, Tomeu On Thu, 2007-07-12 at 15:47 +0200, Bert Freudenberg wrote: > Then there need to be datastore plugins for different document types. > Like, Open Office documents are zipped, so it needs to look inside them. > > - Bert - > > On Jul 12, 2007, at 15:17 , Marco Pesenti Gritti wrote: > > > The datastore is doing fulltext indexing of the documents.
