Hi. This is my version of an incremental index: I have one working dir for all the new segments flying in and a routine every four hours to build a new index for a special webindex folder which is nearly up to date. I merge segments in another folder with YYYYMMDDHH Pattern in my working segment dir. With this I can always recognize which segments have already been indexed. Move or copy the merged segment under YYYYMMDDHH folder to your fresh webindex segment folder and also everything under $merge_dir (new index) to your index folder in webindex dir. This dir has same structure as your working crawl dir. It is also good for backup reasons. Call the script below with a cron and add cp, mv, rm, or tar commands wherever you like. I zip my crawldb and linkdb with this cron, too, as a backup.
