hmm, are you going to generate multiple indexes? It might be interesting if we could search over the various fields provided by META.yml[1]
I am only going to generate one index, but this is because Plucene indexes are better than you think they are. :)
Plucene allows me to index "documents" with multiple fields, like so:
type: module name: Email::Simple category: email author: SIMON description: ... synopsis: ... depends: .... rating: ...
In fact, I can just index META.yml plus the documentation pretty much as is and get the data in the right fields. There's a lot more fields you can (and I will add) of course, such as when the module was released, the license, and so on.
Very cool. You're right. I was thinking of the old-fashioned type text indexes. I've been doing a little reading on P/Lucene, and it's very exciting.
Oooh, I think I like it I think I like what I’m feelin’ Even though it’s such a surprise But you know Oooh, I think I really like it I think I like what I feel And changes really open your eyes - Boston, lyrics to "I think I like it"
When you have such an index, to find all the good email handling modules, search for "category:email rating:4-5". Or "email author:SIMON", it comes to the same thing. :)
Is that a bug? ;-)
Browsing is just searching metadata.
