Hi, Mike,

Thanks for your interest in DBSight!

The free version of DBSight should satisfy most of the common requirements. We could open source it if time is right.

There are many solutions for database and lucene, each has its own uniqueness. DBSight starts from basic SQL, and just apply a little Lucene specific configuration and some ready-to-use scaffolding. Compared to SOLR, DBSight's design is more like ruby-on-rails rather than a common web application.

Sweet! I'll look more into solr. I wasn't under the impression solr could index a database like dbsight.

Solr (http://lucene.apache.org/solr) can import from a DB, if that is what you are after. I haven't done a full feature comparison between DB Sight and Solr, but it appears there is a fair amount of overlap based on the front page.

HTH,

I pose this question here:

Hello Everyone,

I just started to use lucene recently. Great project BTW. I was
wondering if anyone has suggested making an open source version of
dbsight (www.dbsight.net/). I've just started using it and I think it
would be awesome if it was open source. Does anyone know of a project
that's like this that is OS?

If not, then how can I propose a project that does a similar thing?

Thanks,
Mike
