All,
I've just released Zilverline version 1.0.
New features include incremental indexing and scheduling of indexing proces, as well as a few minor updates.
The source will be made available as well very soon.
Zilverline is protected by a Collaborative Source License. You can read more on this type of licensing at http://www.zilverline.org
Zilverline is a search engine based on lucene that's ready to roll, and can be simply dropped in a Servlet Engine. It runs out of the box, and supports PDF, WORD, HTM, TXT, RTF and CHM, and can index zip, rar, and many other formats. Both on Windows and Linux.
Zilverline supports plugins. You can create your own extractors for various file formats. I've provided Extractors for RTF, Text, PDF, Word, and HTML.
Zilverline supports collections. A collection is a set of files and directories in a directory. A collection can be indexed, and searched. The results of the search can be retrieved from local disk or remotely, if you run a webserver on your machine. Files inside zip, rar and chm files are extracted, indexed and can be cached. The cache can be mapped to sit behind your webserver as well.
It's also possible to specify your own handlers for archives. Say you have a RAR archive, and you have a program on your system that can extract the content from it, then you can specify that Zilverline should use this program.
Please take look at http://www.zilverline.org, and have a swing at it.
cheers,
Michael Franken
