    Custom Examine Index - Help!

    Extending Umbraco

    Hi Guys,

    I hope someone can help a brother in need as it approaches the weekend!!

    I have spent most of my day getting to grips with Examine and so far so good - managed to add a custom umbraco index. 

    However, i am trying to add another one for a custom index that was created from a SQL table (uCommerce Products).

    I can search the index using the very helpful LUKE and it returns as expected. The issue I am having is that i am not sure what should go into the Examine.config and Examine.settings files.

    ExamineSettings.config: I need another provider but it is NOT umbraco content so what type should it be?

    I think everything else should follow once i have that sorted. Its more - can I use the UmbracoExamine and another one at the same time?

    Thanks in advance! :)

    ExamineSettings.config:

     

    <providers>
          <add name="InternalIndexer" type="UmbracoExamine.UmbracoContentIndexer, UmbracoExamine"
               supportUnpublished="true"
               supportProtected="true"
               interval="10"
               analyzer="Lucene.Net.Analysis.WhitespaceAnalyzer, Lucene.Net"/>
          <add name="InternalMemberIndexer" type="UmbracoExamine.UmbracoMemberIndexer, UmbracoExamine"
               supportUnpublished="true"
               supportProtected="true"
               interval="10"
               analyzer="Lucene.Net.Analysis.Standard.StandardAnalyzer, Lucene.Net"/>
           <add name="StockpakIndexer" type="UmbracoExamine.UmbracoContentIndexer, UmbracoExamine"
                       runAsync="true"
                       supportUnpublished="true"
                       supportProtected="true"
                       interval="10"
                       analyzer="Lucene.Net.Analysis.Standard.StandardAnalyzer, Lucene.Net"/>
       </providers>

    Guys,

    I did custom db indexer a while back and i have the following in my examine config files:

    ExamineIndex:

      <IndexSet SetName="directoryIndexSet"

             IndexPath="~/App_Data/ExamineIndexes/directory/">

        <IndexUserFields>

          <add Name="name" EnableSorting="true"/>

          <add Name="nodeName" EnableSorting="true"/>

          <add Name="nodeTypeAlias"/>

          <add Name="directoryType" />

          <add Name="countryName" />

          <add Name="countryId"/>

          <add Name="address1"/>

          <add Name="address2"/>

          <add Name="address3"/>

          <add Name="postCode"/>

          <add Name="emailAddress"/>

          <add Name="webSiteUrl"/>

          <add Name="clientNameForUrl"/>

     <add Name="region"/>

        </IndexUserFields>

      </IndexSet>

    You will need to include the files you want these are the fields in my case i have selected from the db.

    ExamineSettings:

    under index providors i have

     <add name="directoryIndexer"

                type="Examine.LuceneEngine.Providers.SimpleDataIndexer, Examine"

                indexSet="directoryIndexSet"

                dataService="ExamineDbIndexer.ExamineATGDbDataService, ExamineDbIndexer"

               analyzer="Lucene.Net.Analysis.Standard.StandardAnalyzer, Lucene.Net"

                indexTypes="directory"

                runAsync="true"/> 

    under searchers

    <add name="directorySearcher"

             type="Examine.LuceneEngine.Providers.LuceneSearcher, Examine"

             indexSet="directoryIndexSet" analyzer="Lucene.Net.Analysis.Standard.StandardAnalyzer, Lucene.Net" />

     

    Regards

     

    Ismail

    I don't see how it connects to the db? How it knows what table or database etc...? How does it know when knew data is added into the field?
