DESCRIPTION

12       beagle-query is used to search your personal information space via Bea‐
13       gle, on the command line.  It is a command-line  form  of  the  beagle-
14       search GNOME program.
15

OPTIONS

17   Search options
18       --max-hits
19              Reduce  the  number  of search results returned per backend. The
20              default is 100.  Increasing this will slow down  overall  search
21              speed.
22
23       --verbose
24              Print detailed information about each hit.
25
26       --cache
27              Show  the  entire  cached  text for each result. Only works with
28              --verbose.
29              Note that for large documents this will produce extremely  large
30              output, so use this with uri queries or queries returning only a
31              few results  Not  recommended  for  live-queries  or  stats-only
32              queries.
33
34       --live-query
35              Enable  live  queries. This argument keeps beagle-query running,
36              continuously feeding new matching hits as the system gets  aware
37              of them.
38
39       --stats-only
40              Show  only  statistics  on  the number of search results and how
41              long it took to get them, and not the results themselves.
42
43   Other options
44       --keywords
45              Lists the keywords allowed in  query.  Keyword  queries  can  be
46              specified as keywordname:value e.g. ext:jpg
47
48       --help Print the usage message.
49
50       --version
51              Print the version information.
52

QUERY

54       You  can  query for a word, several words or a quoted phrase. When sev‐
55       eral words are searched, only documents which contain all the words are
56       matched.  To  specify  a  phrase,  enclose  it  in shell-escaped quotes
57       (\"search term\").
58
59       Besides these beagle supports an advanced query syntax. See http://bea‐
60       gle-project.org/Searching_Data#Search_Syntax for more information.
