DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the odidx commands.

       The command odidx is a utility for indexing files  on  the  local  file
       system.   This command is useful for a full-text search system of a Web
       site.  Supported  file  format  are  plain  text  and  HTML.  Supported
       character  encoding  are  US-ASCII  and  ISO-8859-1.  The  URI  of each
       document is specified with the path of its file.  Attributes  named  as
       title  and date are given to each documents. When a document is already
       existing in the database, it is registered  if  its  last  modification
       time  is  newer, or it is ignored. Modification times are stored in the
       sub database ‘_mtime’ in the main database directory. Score information
       are stored in the sub database ‘_score’ in the main database directory.
       This command is used in the above format.  name  specifies  a  database
       name.  dir specifies a directory name.

       A  summary  of  options is included below.  For a complete description,
       see the file:///usr/share/doc/qdbm-doc/spex.html#odeumcli.

       -l file
              read a file and get list of paths of files to register.  If  ‘-’
              is specified, the standard input is read.

       -wmax num
              specify  the  max  number  of words to be stored in the document
              database.

       -tsuf sufs
              specify suffixes of plain text files in comma separated  format.
              The default is ‘-tsuf .txt,.text’.

       -hsuf sufs
              specify  suffixes  of  HTML files in comma separated format. The
              default is ‘-hsuf .html,.htm’.

EXAMPLES

       For example, to register files which are under ‘/home/mikio’ and  whose
       suffix are ‘.txt’, ‘.c’, or ‘.h’, perform the following command.
            odidx register -tsuf ".txt,.c,.h" -hsuf "" casket /home/mikio

       Thus,  to  retrieve documents which include ‘unix’ and ‘posix’ and show
       the top 8 terms, perform the following command.
            odmgr search -max 8 -h casket "unix posix"
