I have upgraded the Mussen plugin file to work with eZ publish version 3.6, and probably later. You can find the changes, including a number of bug fixes, here:
http://ez.no/community/news/ez_partner_boker_releases_a_new_search_engine_for_ez_publish#comments

It works to some extent now; apparently, it still does not index all searchable fields, and there are some more issues to look at. For this, I would have to edit the ezpublishStrategy.groovy file. Has any one experience with this already, done some work on this? Don't like to duplicate work...

Regards,

Harry

Hi Harry

I may inform you that our first milestone release of a Lucene (the same core libs as Mussen uses) based search plugin is imminent (summer conference). It supports all of Lucene and eZ publish :-)), including all searchable ezp fields, the ezp role/policy system, and features not available before but most wanted (search across any combination of classes and fields for example). We added also index-time boosting of fields (attributes, metadata) based on ini settings to tune result ranking to specific setups/needs.

And it is very fast!!

We test from 3.7 onwards though

Regards

Hi Paul,

Sounds good, I should have known this months ago before we ordered the Mussen licence...

I will be happy to learn more about it at the Summer Conference

Regards,

Harry
