htsearch
htsearch(1) General Commands Manual htsearch(1)
NAME
htsearch - create document index and word database for the ht://Dig search engine
SYNOPSIS
htsearch [options] [query_string]
DESCRIPTION
Htsearch is used to search in de databases created by htdig for content. is the actual search engine of the htdig search system. It is a
CGI program that is expected to be invoked by an HTML form. It will accept both the GET and POST methods of passing data to the CGI pro-
gram.
OPTIONS
query_string
A CGI-style query string can be given as a single argument, and is only used if the REQUEST_METHOD environment variable is not set.
If no query_string is given, and REQUEST_METHOD is not set, htsearch will prompt for the query.
-c configfile
Use the specified configfile instead of the default (for security reasons this option is only available when htsearch is used on the
commandline).
-v -d Run in verbose mode. This increases the verbosity of the program. Using more than 2 is probably only useful for debugging pur-
poses. The default verbose mode gives a progress on what it is doing and where it is.
FILES
/etc/htdig/htdig.conf
The default configuration file.
/srv/www/htdig/common/header.html
The default search results header file
/srv/www/htdig/common/footer.html
The default search results footer file
/srv/www/htdig/common/wrapper.html
The default search results wrapper file, that contains the header and footer together in one file
/srv/www/htdig/common/nomatch.html
The default 'no matches found' HTML file
/srv/www/htdig/common/syntax.html
The default file that explains boolean expression syntax errors
SEE ALSO
Please refer to the HTML pages (in the htdig-doc package) /usr/share/doc/htdig-doc/html/index.html and the manual pages htdig(1) and
htmerge(1) for a detailed description of ht://Dig and its commands.
