NAME

       tracker-miner-fs - Used to crawl the file system to mine data.

SYNOPSIS

       tracker-miner-fs [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

       tracker-miner-fs  is  not  supposed  to	be  run by the user since it is started by its .desktop file when the user logs in. It can also be
       started manually of course for debugging purposes. You can not run more than one instance of this at the same time.

       tracker-miner-fs mines information about applications and files only.

OPTIONS

       -?, --help
	      Show summary of options.

       -V, --version
	      Returns the version of this binary.

       -v, --verbosity={0|1|2|3}
	      Sets the logging level, 0=errors, 1=minimal, 2=detailed, 3=debug.

       -s, --initial-sleep=SECONDS
	      Sets the initial sleep time before crawling the file system is started. If the --no-daemon option is used, this option is ignored.

       -n, --no-daemon
	      Tells the miner to exit once all indexing has finished and the database is up to date. This is not the default mode of operation for
	      the  miner,  usually it stays around acting like a daemon to monitor file updates which may occur over time. This option renders the
	      --initial-sleep option moot.

       -e, --eligible=FILE
	      Checks if FILE is eligible for being mined based on the current configuration rules. In addition to this,  it  will  check  if  FILE
	      would be monitored for changes. This works with non-existing FILE arguments as well as existing FILE arguments.

       -d, --disable-miner=MINER
	      Tells  the  daemon  to  disable the in-house miners it supports. Depending on build options, this can be 'Files', 'Applications' and
	      'Userguides'. This option can be provided more than once to diasable multiple miners. Disable in this case means the  miner  is  not
	      started,	though	all  miners  still register themselves on D-Bus and appear there, no actual action is performed otherwise (such as
	      crawling, setting up monitors, or checking mtimes against the file system).

ENVIRONMENT

       TRACKER_USE_LOG_FILES
	      Don't just log to stdout and stderr, but to log files too which are kept in $HOME/.local/share/tracker/. This came  into	effect	in
	      0.15.3  and 0.16.0. After this version of Tracker, logging to file (usually useful for debugging) can only be done by declaring this
	      environment variable.

       TRACKER_USE_CONFIG_FILES
	      Don't use GSettings, instead use a config file similar to how settings were saved in 0.10.x. That is, a file which is much  like	an
	      .ini file.  These are saved to $HOME/.config/tracker/
