NAME
KSx::Remote::SearchServer - Make a Searcher remotely accessible.
SYNOPSIS
my $searcher = KinoSearch::Search::IndexSearcher->new(
index => '/path/to/index'
);
my $search_server = KSx::Remote::SearchServer->new(
searcher => $searcher,
port => 7890,
password => $pass,
);
$search_server->serve;
DESCRIPTION
The SearchServer class, in conjunction with SearchClient, makes it possible to run a search on one machine and report results on another.
By aggregating several SearchClients under a PolySearcher, the cost of searching what might have been a prohibitively large monolithic index can be distributed across multiple nodes, each with its own, smaller index.
METHODS
new
my $search_server = KSx::Remote::SearchServer->new(
searcher => $searcher, # required
port => 7890, # required
password => $pass, # required
);
Constructor. Takes hash-style parameters.
searcher - the Searcher that the SearchServer will wrap.
port - the port on localhost that the server should open and listen on.

serve
$search_server->serve;
Open a listening socket on localhost and wait for SearchClients to connect.
