[opencms-dev] Search into OpenCmsVfsFile

[Julien Lechevanton]

Hi,

Thanks for those informations, that's the solution we are trying to implement by now.

In fact, you're right, we don't need to indexthe homepage containing the news summary but that was an example. We are now implementing a portlet based template tool and in that way, considering that portlets are OpenCmsVfsFiles, we need to index them.

Thanks for your help,

J.

The default indexing concerns itself only with the contents of the files 
as they appear in VFS, it does not index the generated HTML. This is 
actually a feature as it lessens the amount of noise in the index. In 
case where your template includes the content from a different file (or 
files), the summary page itself is seen as being empty (as in not having 
any contents inside the control file) - this also applies to JSPs (which 
are not included in the indexing as per default setup, and even if they 
were, only the JSP code is indexed, not the output generated by the code).

Generally speaking in terms of indexing/searching, I would consider a 
summary page to be pure noise since it does not contain anything that is 
not available on the individual pages summarized in the page. Hence it 
is better for the user to find the page with the contents rather than 
the summary page with only a summary.

But of course, there may be exceptions to that rule, and to be able to 
deal with that I would suggest that you sub-class 
org.opencms.search.documents.CmsDocumentXmlContent and get it to extract 
the necessary contents from the file(s) that makes up the summary.
