    <h1>Recoll index format details</h1>



    <p>A comparison of index formats for recoll 1.8 and omega

    1.0.1</p>



    <p>Recoll terms are not stemmed before being stored. They are turned to

      all minuscule letters with no accents. An auxiliary database

      handles stem expansion. Omega stores both raw

      terms and stemmed versions (with prefix Z)</p>



    <h2>Special prefixed terms:</h2>



    <p>A comparison of prefixed term usage between Recoll and

      omega/xapian. <em>xapian-core</em> in the Omega column means

      that the prefix is not used by Omega, but mentionned as

      allocated in the xapian prefix definition document.</p>



    <table border=1 cellspacing=0 width="90%">

	<thead>

	<tr><th>Pref.</th><th>Recoll use</th><th>Omega use</th>

	</tr>

      </thead>

      <tbody>

	<tr><td>T</td><td>mime type</td><td>Same</td>

	</tr>



	<tr><td>P</td><td>Truncated/hashed version of file path. For

	single-document files, and for the file part of a

	multi-document file. Used for up-to-date checks and for

	retrieving a document by path. </td><td>Path part of URL (no

	hashing). Uses U for the equivalent

	term used for up to date checks.</td> 

	</tr>



	<tr><td>Q</td><td>pathhash+ipath same + internal path for

	documents inside multi-document files. Used to set the

	existence flag for subdocs when a multi-document file is found

	to be up to date, or for deleting all subdocs for a file, or

	for retrieving a document by path+ipath. Compatible

	with Q definition in xapian/termprefixes.txt: unique

	identifier.</td><td>None</td> 

	</tr>



	<tr><td>D</td><td>date: modification date of file, like

	YYYYMMDD</td><td>Same</td>

      </tbody>

    </table>



    <p>None of the "date" terms are currently used by recoll queries</p>



    <h2>Values</h2>

    <p>Recoll currently stores no document values.</p>

    <p>Omega stores 2 values, for the md5 hash of the file, and the

      last modification date (as unix time). The md5 value doesn't

      appear to be currently used ?</p>



    <h2>Document data record format</h2>

      <p>Recoll has the same line based / prefixed data record format

      as omega (name=value\n).</p>
