Mauricio Monsalve	Monday 14 July 2003 9:34:56 am Hi! I'm developing an improvement for eZ. The objective is to add a semantic search option. I´ve been studing the basics for eZ and I couldn't find a detailed explanation about the serach engine. I need this to decide if I do this semantic search as a plug-in or a completly new feature. Any documentation you can provide me will be great! Thanks, Mauricio
Bård Farstad	Monday 14 July 2003 10:59:32 am There is not much documentation about the search engine framework. But the search engine will index all objects which are searchable. You will find the implementation in the folder: kernel/search/plugins/ezsearchengine/ What excactly are you looking for? I will try to get the documentation updated here as soon as possible. --bård Documentation: http://ez.no/doc

Hi!

I'm developing an improvement for eZ. The objective is to add a semantic search option.

I´ve been studing the basics for eZ and I couldn't find a detailed explanation about the serach engine.

I need this to decide if I do this semantic search as a plug-in or a completly new feature.

Any documentation you can provide me will be great!

Thanks,

Mauricio

There is not much documentation about the search engine framework. But the search engine will index all objects which are searchable.
You will find the implementation in the folder:
kernel/search/plugins/ezsearchengine/

What excactly are you looking for? I will try to get the documentation updated here as soon as possible.
