RE: [docbook-apps] search engine with docbook

["Marvin, Scot" <scotm@amazon.com>]

Hey BG:

 

What I’ve done in the past is generated the HTML and then used the HTML in a help application tool (HAT), like Flare or RoboHelp.

 

If you’re programmatically-inclined, you could generate a HAT-like output with DocBook and then add the Lucene search engine to it. More info at http://lucene.apache.org/.

 

Or, there’s the old stand-by: generate one long page and use the browser’s search feature. It’s yucky, but functional.

 

That’s all the ideas I have right now.

Subject: [docbook-apps] search engine with docbook

 

Hi,
I realize an online help (html) with docbook and I would like to integrate a search engine.
Are there solutions to integrate a search engine with docbook?

Moreover I am a little amazed because having a search engine in an online help is very common, nevertheless I don't find many solutions on the subject.

Thank you,
BG
