NAME

swished - A set of perl modules to provide a persistent swish-e daemon; intended to be used with SWISH::API::Remote.

SYNOPSIS

See the documentation for 'swished' or 'SWISHED::Handler'

DESCRIPTION

From the README:

This will install the module and associated files get installed into /usr/local/swished.

            

              
              
/usr/local/swished/cgi-bin/swished   is the CGI and Apache::Registry version
/usr/local/lib/SWISHED/Handler.pm    is the mod_perl 2.0 Apache Handler
/usr/local/lib/startup.pl            is the mod_perl 2.0 startup script
            
          

To run as a mod_perl 2.0 module, add lines like the following to your mod_perl httpd.conf file:

            

              
              
PerlRequire /usr/local/swished/lib/startup.pl
PerlPassEnv SWISHED_INDEX_DEFAULT 
PerlPassEnv SWISHED_INDEX_INDEX2 
<Location /swished>
        PerlResponseHandler SWISHED::Handler
        PerlSetEnv SWISHED_INDEX_DEFAULT /var/lib/sman/sman.index
        # set this to your default index
        PerlSetEnv SWISHED_INDEX_INDEX2  /your/collection.index
        SetHandler perl-script
</Location>
            
          

To run as a Apache::Registry modules, place lines like the following in your httpd.conf file

            

              
              
Alias /swished/  /usr/local/swished/cgi-bin/
PassEnv SWISHED_INDEX_DEFAULT
<Location /swished> 
        SetHandler  perl-script
        PerlHandler Apache::Registry
        Options +ExecCGI
        SetEnv SWISHED_INDEX_DEFAULT /var/lib/sman/sman.index
        # set this to your default index
</Location>
            
          

You could test the above mod_perl configuration via a command like:

            

              
              
lynx 'http://yourserverasdf.com/swished?w=my+search'
            
          

or you could test the CGI or Apache::Registry installation with command like:

            

              
              
lynx 'http://yourserveradsf.com/swished/swished?w=my_search'
            
          

the format for the text you'll see is explained in the file PROTOCOL and is expected to be read by SWISH::API::Remote (see http://search.cpan.org/~joshr/SWISH-API-Remote/)
