#my $polyanalyzer = Lucy::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer->new(
# language => 'en',
# )
#
#How can I specify multiple languages such as Danish, German, Finnish etc
#etc.
Use the appropriate 2 letter country code from the polyanalyzer perldoc, eg:
en => English,
da => Danish,
de => German,
es => Spanish,
fi => Finnish,
fr => French,
hu => Hungarian,
it => Italian,
nl => Dutch,
no => Norwegian,
pt => Portuguese,
ro => Romanian,
ru => Russian,
sv => Swedish,
tr => Turkish,
or you can create your own polyanalyzer, which I do.
#Secondly the path_to_index given in the tutorial is '/store/lucy_test'.
#This path was given in the sample tutorial when I downloaded the
#apache-lucy-0.3.1 library. Now if I want to change this path meaning I want
#to store my indexed documents at a different location how can I do that?
Just set it. Update the path to the path structure you want to use. There's
nothing special here. Just make sure the directory structure exists before you
start creating your index.
#Also what do the 'create' and 'truncate' parameters specify in this case?
Create simply creates an index if it doesn't exist. " truncate - If true,
proceed with the intention of discarding all previous indexing data. The old
data will remain intact and visible until commit() succeeds. " (See :
http://search.cpan.org/~logie/Lucy-0.3.1/lib/Lucy/Index/Indexer.pod )
When you have questions about a particular perl module, (for an object which
you're using), look at the perldoc for that module for more information beyond
that which is contained in the walk through.
# *Index doesn't seem to contain any data*
After you generate your index, be sure to call $indexer->commit(); otherwise,
there will be no documents found. Then, make sure that your cgi has permission
to read the index directory structure. If you don't have read permissions, it
will appear to the cgi that no index was created.
Good luck.
