Hi

The following FAQ might be a bit outdated, but nevertheless you should find some answers there as well

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/lucene/LuceneFAQ

For example to answer your question 4) see

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/lucene/LuceneFAQ#LuceneFAQ-CanIuseLucenetocrawlmysiteorothersitesontheInternet?

If I understand your questions correctly, your objective is to provide a search engine for your company website?

Hi,

Before  doing a deep dive into lucene I would  appreciate it if  you would
clarify a few things so I know if this is the right project to fulfill my
objective.

1. It is my my understanding that google search is a more elaborate utility
but not unlike this *.nix search utility grep which searches for a string
pattern recursively in text files , for example  files could   .java files
, .html files.  The search starts in this case from the current directory.

  grep -RiIl 'search'

Quick grep explanation:

     -R - recursive search
     -i - case-insensitive
     -I - skip binary files
     -l - print a simple list as output.

2. Further to my undersrand , if it correct, is the objective of lucene
pretty much the same . Searching for String patterns recursively  ?

3. If  lucene is a search engine same as google or grep then do I just
point it to my website root directory  ?

4. Can I use lucene as a web search engine same as Google, if so where
would I point it to so that lucence can recursively search the www
websites  ?

5. Is lucene use case for something else entirely  ?


Thanks
