SYNOPSIS

9       beagle-build-index [options] <index_path> <path> [path path path]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       beagle-build-index, is a tool designed for building static indexes out‐
13       side of the Beagle daemon.
14
15       Running beagle-build-index by hand is of use for those wishing to  cre‐
16       ate  and  build  static  indexes  used by the Beagle daemon. The static
17       indexes can be helpful in many cases but most notably used  as  system-
18       wide  indexes  shared by all users, and as a way for system-administra‐
19       tors to run indexing on a central server in a network environment.
20
21       beagle-build-index will index the data specified by the path  arguments
22       and create an index in the index_path directory. If a suitable index is
23       found in the index directory, if will automatically append data to  the
24       index  if the file at hand has been modified since it was last indexed.
25       If it can't find a suitable index (non-existant or version-mismatch) is
26       will purge the directory recursively.
27
28       The  beagle-build-index tool is not intended to be invoked by the stan‐
29       dard user.

OPTIONS

32       beagle-build-index takes the following options
33
34       --recursive
35              If specified, do recursive crawling on the paths specified
36
37       --debug
38              If specified, echo verbose debugging information
39
40       --cache-text
41              If specified, build text-cache of documents used for snippets
42
43       --allow-pattern [pattern]
44              Only allow files that match the pattern to be indexed.
45
46       --deny-pattern [pattern]
47              Keep any files that match the pattern from being indexed.
48
49       --remap [path1:path2]
50              If specified, remap the target path by  prefix.  path1  will  be
51              replaced  with  path2.  This  option is intended to be used when
52              generating pre-built indexes, where the final path will be  dif‐
53              fer from the current one.
