mirkosertic / fxdesktopsearch Goto Github PK

Please kindly implement the type ahead search. There are no updates for a year. please kindly update the product with new features if possible.

I'd like to build a version from source. I am experienced with Maven and Gradle (ok, rusty with maven). Are there any setup instructions needed?

I'm guessing the lack of a settings.xml file is the issue. If a minimum settings.xml file could be shared I can try that.

Full environment

env.txt

Here is the use case. I'd like to index custom types (by extending Tika). Those files can have different extensions (it doesn't matter). Also extensions sometime can vary, like htm and html that are included separately as of now. Also I'd like to index metadata from photos, so jpg vs jpeg is next that comes to mind.

I suggest to check content-type (or something) returned by Tika instead of supportsFile and, probably, ignore it if it is application/octet-stream.

It is very confusing for newcomers that previously saved metadata replacement mapping is being used although there is no UI as of now. It took me a while to realize why new entries I added in constructor aren't being used 🐌

pls make mac os binary in the future

I don't know if this is intentional, but it might be nice to start with showing available facets right away, i.e. set theQuery to new MatchAllDocsQuery when query is empty.

Is it possible to add tab view for viewing the content/ content on search results with preview/open

Please kindly check https://github.com/Ogefest/Notepack

The configuration dialog is just horrible. It would be better to integrate it into the web ui.

When using a search suggestion as a direct search query, there are sometimes no results. This seems to relate to stop words or language stemming

Windows 7 x64. Is there a dependency I'm missing?

After search results found for the given text and would be better if it has the following options

1. Next
2. Previous
3. First
4. End
5. Go to Nth Search Result - ex:100 - go to 100th match of the given text
6. Pagination
7. Pagination Size
8. Sample Search Text and Result in a Image in the front page of the project to understand quickly how the search has to be made, ex: https://cdn.intellipaat.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/implicit-search-commands.png and beautiful example on google search - https://ahrefs.com/blog/google-advanced-search-operators/

Example, search with quotes, search with asterisk, search with brackets, search with colon - all example in a table format and result would be easy to understand

app is good but speed of indexing is incredibly slow

I would like to scan custom extensions as well. I work a lot with structured documents like .csv, .xml, .json etc. These could be scanned like normal text files.

sample TAMIL language PDF file you can download it from - http://www.messagehub.info/ta/messages.do and http://thefinish.in/download.html

The current handcrafted Lucene handler can be replaced by some kind of "embedded" Solr server. This will greatly reduce complexity in the whole codebase and will make DesktopSearch relying on "standard" components with a stable API.

Cool would be a small thumbnail next to the search result.

Very nice work. I also notice that you are the creator of Bytecoder. Is it possible to make FXDesktopSearch accessible in a broweser by compiling with your Bytecoder? This will make desktop search much simpler. Thanks!

Hi,

The search result and search performance is good..However hard to navigate docx/pdf for the keyword entered.
It would be helpful for everyone if you have preview link and on clicking the file will be opened in text with next, previous to go with matches inside the file...also another next, previous to go with next occurences....Basically open pdf or docx with plain text and higlight the search...

This would be an easy to add but it would be very much helpful for many

example:

Thanks

Mix the results with the results of another search engine. So you can create a custom search engine in Chrome/Vivaldi/... with http://127.0.0.1:4711/search and always search in your own files aswell as the internet.

It seems like a good idea to be able to adjust criteria without going up and down

You can see the indexing progress in the status bar of the application.

Yet there is no percentage in the status bar. All you see is it randomly popping up with filenames and occasionally the number of searched documents goes up in the search results. Apart from that, I never know when it's finished.

Lucene 6.0.1 should be used as the search backend.

After application startup, the filesystem should be crawled for changed and changed files should be indexed.

The search results should be better categorized. Something like Carrot 2 for instance.

There should be support for web page crawling, for instance to integrate the corporate intranet into the search.
