Again, maybe premature optimization, but the indexer could run a JS function over the doc and treat the result like a view result. Yes, this is duplicating a bit of the work that views do, but it saves storing one copy of the data.

The reason that I don't try and index the entire DB is because of the
arbitrary structure to JSON. Indexing a value that isn't a string
leads to a whole lot of questions with no good answers. By indexing a
view I let people pick exactly which parts of their db they want
indexed.

If some can dream up a structured indexing that doesn't suck, I'd be
glad to take a look. But after all the playing I've done with it I
just don't really see the structured stuff as being useful.

Yeah, but in case I just want to index the entire DB I don't want to
have another index with a copy of all my data.

You can just make a view with everything in if you want to index the

DB.

Indexing views is much more flexible.

One thing I noticed (which is different from my original implementation) that you do not index databases but only views, is that correct? I'm not sure if it matters, but I do see the case for "meh just index the entire
database". Is this a planned feature?

Darrin,

action2 went away because _external is now in trunk. My couchdb- lucene branch is still there and I've put it on the schedule to bring into
conformance with the very slightly altered trunk version (trunk
includes more info in the line API).

Moving forward you can pull a copy of the couchdb-lucene stuff and hack on it to get it working or wait for me to get to it this weekend.

Hi,

In late November I was working with davisp's couchdb-lucene, which
required
jchris' action2 branch to work.

I am now returning to the development I was doing, building a new
development environment from scratch and it appears that jchris'
action2
branch has now gone away.

I am specifically interested in lucene integration. Can anybody
provide
any
hints on how to move forward?

Regards,

Darrin
