2.4. Using Beagle WEB browser plugins
- Beagle is a concurrent desktop indexer, built on Lucene and the Mono
- project (C#), for which a number of add-on browser plugins were written.
- These work by copying visited web pages to an indexing queue directory,
- which the indexer then processes.
+ Beagle is (was?) a concurrent desktop indexer, built on Lucene and the
+ Mono project (C#), for which a number of add-on browser plugins were
+ written. These work by copying visited web pages to an indexing queue
+ directory, which the indexer then processes. Especially, there is a
+ Firefox extension.
If, for any reason, you so happen to prefer Recoll to Beagle, you can
- still use the browser plugins (they are written in Javascript and
- completely independant of C#, Beagle, Lucene...). Recoll can process the
- Beagle queue directory. Of course, this supposes that Beagle is not
- running, else both programs will fight for the same files.
+ still use the Firefox plugin, which is written in Javascript and
+ completely independant of C#, Beagle, Lucene..., and set Recoll to process
+ the Beagle queue directory. This supposes that Beagle is not running, else
+ both programs will fight for the same files.
This feature can be enabled in the GUI indexing configuration panel, or by
editing the configuration file (set processbeaglequeue to 1).
+
+ There are more recent instructions about how to find and install the
+ Firefox extension on the Recoll wiki.
