xapian indexer

[Cédric Jeanneret deactivated]

Hello,

As it was discussed on mailman-users ML[1], here is my xapian indexer code.

You'll find two scripts :
- the one which will replace the "normal" archiver
- the one called to update pippermail archives

Depends:
- xappy [2]

How it works :
just set the variable PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER and/or PRIVATE_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER so that it points on archive-and-index.py script
Ex:
PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = '/var/local/bin/archive-and-index.py %(hostname) %(listname)'

Change if necessary the path for pipermail-archive.py if necessary.

Reload mailman.... and that's all ;)

I'd like to really thank Mark Sapiro for his help :)

Feel free to use it, and to comment it out. I tested it some times on our server, it works just fine.

Best regards,

C.

And here's pippermail part.

It's a copy of "arch" script, without the lock stuff. Maybe we should modify "arch" so that we can pass a "-no-lock" option... ?

Please discard all previous attachments (seems I cannot remove them, Mark).

According to http://wiki.list.org/x/RAKJ I rewrite my indexer; you'll find it attached with this comment.

Thank you Mark for the time you took on my case!
