| <title>Jakarta Lucene - Building and Installing the Basic Demo</title> |
| </properties> |
| <body> |
| |
| <section name="About this Document"> |
| <p> |
| This document is intended as a "getting started" guide to using and running the |
| Jakarta Lucene demos. It walks you through some basic installation and configuration. |
| </p> |
| </section> |
| |
| |
| <section name="About the Demos"> |
| <p> |
| The Lucene Demo code is a set of command line example applications that demonstrate various |
| functionality of Lucene and how one should go about adding it to their |
| applications. |
| </p> |
| </section> |
| |
| <section name="Setting your classpath"> |
| <p> |
| First, extract the latest Lucene distribution. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| You should see the Jakarta Lucene jar file in the directory you created |
| when you extracted the archive. It should be named something like |
| <b>lucene-{version}.jar</b>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| You should also see a file called called <b>lucene-demos-{version}.jar</b>. |
| Put both of these files in your Java CLASSPATH. |
| </p> |
| </section> |
| |
| <section name="Indexing Files"> |
| <p> |
| Once you've gotten this far you're probably itching to go. Let's <b> build an index!</b> |
| Assuming you've set your classpath correctly, just type |
| "java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexFiles {full-path-to-lucene}/src". This will produce |
| a subdirectory called "index" which will contain an index of all of the Lucene |
| sourcecode. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <b> To search the index </b> type "java org.apache.lucene.demo.SearchFiles". You'll be prompted |
| for a query. Type in a swear word and press the enter key. You'll see that the Lucene |
| developers are very well mannered and get no results. Now try entering the word "vector". |
| That should return a whole bunch of documents. The results will page at every tenth |
| result and ask you whether you want more results. |
