Recoll Engine

Back to top

Recoll is a desktop full-text search tool based on Xapian. By itself Recoll does not offer WEB or API access, this can be achieved using recoll-webui

Configuration

You must configure the following settings:

• base_url
• mount_prefix
• dl_prefix
• search_dir

Example scenario:

1. Recoll indexes a local filesystem mounted in /export/documents/reference,
2. the Recoll search interface can be reached at <https://recoll.example.org/> and
3. the contents of this filesystem can be reached though <https://download.example.org/reference>

base_url: https://recoll.example.org
mount_prefix: /export/documents
dl_prefix: https://download.example.org
search_dir: ""

Implementations

searx.engines.recoll.base_url: str = '' : Location where recoll-webui can be reached.

searx.engines.recoll.mount_prefix: str = '' : Location where the file hierarchy is mounted on your local filesystem.

searx.engines.recoll.dl_prefix: str = '' : Location where the file hierarchy as indexed by recoll can be reached.

searx.engines.recoll.search_dir: str = '' : Part of the indexed file hierarchy to be search, if empty the full domain is searched.

searx.engines.recoll.setup(engine_settings: dict[str, Any]) → bool[source] : Initialization of the Recoll engine, checks if the mandatory values are configured.
