NAME

KinoSearch1::Docs::Tutorial - sample indexing and search applications

DESCRIPTION

The following sample code for invindexer.plx and search.cgi can be used to create a simple search engine. It requires the html presentation of the US Constitution included in the distribution for KinoSearch1, under t/us_constitution.

Note that a proper indexer for html documents would not rely on quick-n-dirty regular expressions for stripping tags, as this one does for the sake of brevity -- it would use a dedicated parsing module such as HTML::Parser.

invindexer.plx

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

use File::Spec;
use KinoSearch1::InvIndexer;
use KinoSearch1::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer;

### In order for invindexer.plx to work correctly, you must modify 
### $source_dir, $path_to_invindex, and possibly $base_url.
###
### $source_dir must lead to the directory containing the US
### Constitution html files.
###
### $path_to_invindex is the future location of the invindex.
###
### $base_url should reflect the location of the us_constitution directory
### when accessed via a web browser.
my $source_dir       = '';
my $path_to_invindex = '';
my $base_url         = '/us_constitution';

opendir( my $source_dh, $source_dir )
    or die "Couldn't opendir '$source_dir': $!";
my @filenames = grep {/\.html/} readdir $source_dh;
closedir $source_dh or die "Couldn't closedir '$source_dir': $!";

### STEP 1: Choose an Analyzer.
my $analyzer = KinoSearch1::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer->new( 
    language => 'en',
);

### STEP 2: Create a InvIndexer object.
my $invindexer = KinoSearch1::InvIndexer->new(
    analyzer => $analyzer,
    invindex => $path_to_invindex,
    create   => 1,
);

### STEP 3: Define fields.
$invindexer->spec_field( name => 'title' );
$invindexer->spec_field( 
    name       => 'bodytext',
    vectorized => 1,
);
$invindexer->spec_field(
    name    => 'url',
    indexed => 0,
);

foreach my $filename (@filenames) {
    next if $filename eq 'index.html';
    my $filepath = File::Spec->catfile( $source_dir, $filename );
    open( my $fh, '<', $filepath )
        or die "couldn't open file '$filepath': $!";
    my $content = do { local $/; <$fh> };

    ### STEP 4: Start a new document.
    my $doc = $invindexer->new_doc;

    $content =~ m#<title>(.*?)</title>#s
        or die "couldn't isolate title in '$filepath'";
    my $title = $1;
    $content =~ m#<div id="bodytext">(.*?)</div><!--bodytext-->#s
        or die "couldn't isolate bodytext in '$filepath'";
    my $bodytext = $1;
    $bodytext =~ s/<.*?>/ /gsm;    # quick and dirty tag stripping

    ### STEP 5: Set the value for each field.
    $doc->set_value( url      => "$base_url/$filename" );
    $doc->set_value( title    => $title );
    $doc->set_value( bodytext => $bodytext );

    ### STEP 6 Add the document to the invindex.
    $invindexer->add_doc($doc);

    ### STEP 7 Repeat steps 3-5 for each document in the collection.
}

### STEP 8 Finalize the invindex.
$invindexer->finish;

search.cgi

#!/usr/bin/perl -T
use strict;
use warnings;

use CGI;
use List::Util qw( max min );
use POSIX qw( ceil );
use KinoSearch1::Searcher;
use KinoSearch1::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer;
use KinoSearch1::Highlight::Highlighter;

my $cgi           = CGI->new;
my $q             = $cgi->param('q');
my $offset        = $cgi->param('offset');
my $hits_per_page = 10;
$q      = '' unless defined $q;
$offset = 0  unless defined $offset;

### In order for search.cgi to work, $path_to_invindex must be modified so
### that it points to the invindex created by invindexer.plx, and
### $base_url may have to change to reflect where a web-browser should
### look for the us_constitution directory.
my $path_to_invindex = '';
my $base_url         = '/us_constitution';

### STEP 1: Specify the same Analyzer used to create the invindex.
my $analyzer = KinoSearch1::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer->new( 
    language => 'en', 
);

### STEP 2: Create a Searcher object.
my $searcher = KinoSearch1::Searcher->new(
    invindex => $path_to_invindex,
    analyzer => $analyzer,
);

### STEP 3: Feed a query to the Search object.
my $hits = $searcher->search($q);

### STEP 4: Arrange for highlighted excerpts to be created.
my $highlighter = KinoSearch1::Highlight::Highlighter->new( 
    excerpt_field => 'bodytext' );
$hits->create_excerpts( highlighter => $highlighter );

### STEP 5: Process the search.
$hits->seek( $offset, $hits_per_page );

### STEP 6: Format the results however you like.

# create result list
my $report = '';
while ( my $hit = $hits->fetch_hit_hashref ) {
    my $score = sprintf( "%0.3f", $hit->{score} );
    $report .= qq|
        <p>
            <a href="$hit->{url}"><strong>$hit->{title}</strong></a>
            <em>$score</em>
            <br>
            $hit->{excerpt}
            <br>
            <span class="excerptURL">$hit->{url}</span>
        </p>
        |;
}

$q = CGI::escapeHTML($q);

# display info about the number of hits, paging links
my $total_hits = $hits->total_hits;
my $num_hits_info;
if ( !length $q ) {
    # no query, no display
    $num_hits_info = '';
}
elsif ( $total_hits == 0 ) {
    # alert the user that their search failed
    $num_hits_info = qq|<p>No matches for <strong>$q</strong></p>|;
}
else {
    # calculate the nums for the first and last hit to display
    my $last_result = min( ( $offset + $hits_per_page ), $total_hits );
    my $first_result = min( ( $offset + 1 ), $last_result );

    # display the result nums, start paging info
    $num_hits_info = qq|
        <p>
            Results <strong>$first_result-$last_result</strong> 
            of <strong>$total_hits</strong> for <strong>$q</strong>.
        </p>
        <p>
            Results Page:
        |;

    # calculate first and last hits pages to display / link to
    my $current_page = int( $first_result / $hits_per_page ) + 1;
    my $last_page    = ceil( $total_hits / $hits_per_page );
    my $first_page   = max( 1, ( $current_page - 9 ) );
    $last_page = min( $last_page, ( $current_page + 10 ) );

    # create a url for use in paging links
    my $href = $cgi->url( -relative => 1 ) . "?" . $cgi->query_string;
    $href .= ";offset=0" unless $href =~ /offset=/;

    # generate the "Prev" link;
    if ( $current_page > 1 ) {
        my $new_offset = ( $current_page - 2 ) * $hits_per_page;
        $href =~ s/(?<=offset=)\d+/$new_offset/;
        $num_hits_info .= qq|<a href="$href">&lt;= Prev</a>\n|;
    }

    # generate paging links
    for my $page_num ( $first_page .. $last_page ) {
        if ( $page_num == $current_page ) {
            $num_hits_info .= qq|$page_num \n|;
        }
        else {
            my $new_offset = ( $page_num - 1 ) * $hits_per_page;
            $href =~ s/(?<=offset=)\d+/$new_offset/;
            $num_hits_info .= qq|<a href="$href">$page_num</a>\n|;
        }
    }

    # generate the "Next" link
    if ( $current_page != $last_page ) {
        my $new_offset = $current_page * $hits_per_page;
        $href =~ s/(?<=offset=)\d+/$new_offset/;
        $num_hits_info .= qq|<a href="$href">Next =&gt;</a>\n|;
    }

    # finish paging links
    $num_hits_info .= "</p>\n";
}
