perl-Sphinx-Config-Builder

The motivation behind this module is the need to manage many indexes and corresponding sources handled by a single Sphinx searchd instance. Managing a configuration file with many indexes and sources quickly becomes unweildy, and a programatic solution is necessary. Using Sphinx::Config::Builder, one may more easily manage Sphinx configurations using a more appropriate backend (e.g., a simple .ini file or even a MySQL database). This is particularly useful if one is frequently adding or deleting indexes and sources. This approach is particularly useful for managing non-natively supported Sphinx datasources that might require the additional step of generating XMLPipe/Pipe2 sources.

This module doesn't read in Sphinx configuration files, it simply allows one to construct and output a configuration file programmtically.
