mifluzsearch(1)		    General Commands Manual	       mifluzsearch(1)

NAME
       mifluzsearch - search the content of an inverted	index.

SYNOPSIS
       mifluzsearch -f words [options]

DESCRIPTION
       mifluzsearch searches a mifluz index for	documents matching a Alt*Vista
       expression  (simple  syntax). The result	of the search is output	on the
       standard	output.

SEARCH SYNTAX
       The search syntax uses a	+ to indicate a	mandatory word,	a -  to	 indi-
       cated a forbiden	word and double	quotes (") to specify a	literal.

OPTIONS
       -v     Increase verbosity.

       -M config_file
	      use config_file instead of the default configuration file.

       -B dbfile (default test)
	      use dbfile inverted index.

       -f expr
	      search for documents that	match expr.

       -H     print  a HTML header before the results so that mifluzsearch can
	      be used as a cgi-bin.

       -o word
	      return the number	of occurencs of	word in	the inverted index.

       -c number (default 10)
	      retrieve at most number documents.

       -d number (default 0)
	      the index	of the first retrieved document	starts at number.  The
	      number of	documents retrieved after this document	depends	on the
	      -c option. If number is higher than the  maximum	document  that
	      matches the query, it will be rounded to match the last chunk of
	      document.

       -n     only parse the search expression and print it.

       -P proximity (default 1)
	      words are	considered near	to each	other if they are at a maximum
	      distance	of proximity words. If the number is negative the word
	      ordering does not	matter.

       -S     return at	most one match per server.

       -l key searching	will start at this position in the index. The  key  is
	      the ascii	representation of a key.

       -l key searching	will end at this position in the index.	The key	is the
	      ascii representation of a	key.

CONFIGURATION FILE
       wordlist_wordkey_document

       wordlist_wordkey_location

       wordlist_wordkey_uniq

RESULTS
       Here is a sample	text result:

       match: <UNDEF> <UNDEF>	0    5	  <UNDEF>   (world the proximity)
       match: <UNDEF> <UNDEF>	0    21	  <UNDEF>   (world the proximity)
       match: <UNDEF> <UNDEF>	0    51	  <UNDEF>   (world the proximity)
       match: <UNDEF> <UNDEF>	0    81	  <UNDEF>   (world the proximity)
       count: 100
       time: 20
       base: 0
       words: the an world

       Here is a sample	xml result (provided the -x option was given):

       <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
       <searchresults>
       <match><document>0 5 </document><info>world the proximity</info></match>
       <match><document>0 21 </document><info>world the	proximity</info></match>
       <match><document>0 51 </document><info>world the	proximity</info></match>
       <match><document>0 81 </document><info>world the	proximity</info></match>
       <count>100</count>
       <time>30</time>
       <words>
	    <verbatim>the an world </verbatim>
	    <unaccent>the an world </unaccent>
       </words>
       <base>0</base>
       </searchresults>

       match  is   the	 document   number   that   matches,   as  defined  by
	      wordlist_wordkey_document.

       info   is a human readable  information	explaining  why	 the  document
	      matched.

       count  is an estimation of the total number of documents	that match the
	      query.

       time   is the number of milliseconds that were necessary	to process the
	      query.

       words verbatim
	      is the list of accented words of the query.

       words unaccent
	      is the list of unaccented	words of the query.

       base   is  the absolute index of	the first document returned in the to-
	      tal number of possible documents.	For instance, if  mifluzsearch
	      was  called  with	-d 50 -c 10 to require ten documents after the
	      50th document, the base will be 50. However, if there  are  only
	      35  documents  that match	the query, the base will be rounded to
	      the 30 and only 5	documents will be returned.

CGI
       Each option may be given	in the QUERY_STRING  environment  variable  so
       that  mifluzsearch  can be used as a cgi-bin instead of a line command.
       The options are	processed  in  the  order  in  which  they  appear  in
       QUERY_STRING.

       QUERY_STRING='v=1&f=a+word&M=/etc/mifluz.conf' mifluzsearch

       is strictly equivalent to

       mifluzsearch -v -f 'a word' -M /etc/mifluz.conf

DEBUG
       Debugging information interpretation. A cursor is open in the index for
       every word and they are stored in a list. The list of cursors is	always
       processed in the	same order, as a single	link list. With	-v, each block
       is  an individual action	on behalf of the word shown on the first line.
       The last	line of	the block is the conclusion of the action described in
       the block. REDO means the same cursor must be  examined	again  because
       the conditions have changed. RESTART means we go	back to	the first cur-
       sor  in	the  list because it may not match the new conditions anymore.
       NEXT means the cursor and all the cursors before	it  match  the	condi-
       tions  and  we  may  proceed to the next	cursor.	ATEND means the	cursor
       cannot match the	conditions because it is at the	end of the index.

ENVIRONMENT
       QUERY_STRING options are	extracted from	QUERY_STRING  in  a  CGI  like
       fashion.

       MIFLUZ_CONFIG  file  name of configuration file read by WordContext(3).
       Defaults	to ~/.mifluz.
