NAME

KinoSearch1::Search::SearchServer - make a Searcher remotely accessible

SYNOPSIS

my $searcher = KinoSearch1::Searcher->new(
    analyzer => $analyzer,
    invindex => '/path/to/invindex',
);
my $server = KinoSearch1::Search::SearchServer->new(
    searchable => $searcher,
    port       => 7890,
    password   => $pass,
);
$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 MultiSearcher, 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

Constructor. Takes hash-style parameters.

• searchable - The Searcher that the SearchServer will wrap.

• port - the port on localhost that the server should open and listen on.

• password - a password which must be supplied by clients.

serve

Open a listening socket on localhost and wait for SearchClients to connect.
