                 Key: NUTCH-422
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-422
             Project: Nutch
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: indexer
    Affects Versions: 0.8.1
         Environment: All environments
            Reporter: Alan Tanaman


Extract from the Readme file:

A.  Introduction

    The index-extra plugin allows you to configure additional fields that you 
wish to be added to the index, based on one of the following sources:
      - The parsed text
      - Meta data fields
      - Previously created document-to-be-indexed fields
      - Plain constant string
      - Java expression combining one or more of the above, and resolving to a 
string
    A regex can also be applied to any of the above, allowing fields to be 
created based on patterns extracted from the source.

B.  Installation

    1)  Binaries only:  Copy the 'index-extra' folder within 
index-extra-v1.0-bin-java1.5.zip to NUTCHDIR/build
                        Copy the 'index-extra-conf.xml' file to NUTCHDIR/conf, 
and configure
                        Enable the plugin by updating the nutch-site.xml file
    2)  Source code:    Always refer to the Nutch wiki for detailed 
instructions on building Nutch.  In short:
                        Copy the 'index-extra' folder within 
index-extra-v1.0-source.zip to NUTCHDIR/src/plugin
                        Update the build.xml in NUTCHDIR/src/plugin to include 
plugin
                        Update the NUTCHDIR/default.properties file to include 
plugin
                        run ant to build
                        Copy the 'index-extra-conf.xml' file to NUTCHDIR/conf, 
and configure
                        Enable the plugin by updating the nutch-site.xml file

C.  Known Issues

    1)  For this plugin to work correctly on any document field, it is 
necessary to run the other index filters
    first, so that all basic document fields are generated first.  To do this, 
configure the indexingfilter.order
    property.  (Please see patch NUTCH-421 to enable indexingfilter.order 
property. If this patch is not applied,
    the plugin will still work, but will not be able to use document fields 
created by other index filter plugins.)

    2)  At this stage, field boost can not be used as Nutch scoring overrides 
the field boost with its own
    document-level boost calculation.  This occurs at the end of 
org.apache.nutch.indexer.Indexer's reduce method.
