This configuration element, which can be found in the
instance-specific config/searching.xml
file,
determines the details of the search for content on the
live system and of the advanced search on the editorial system. Example:
<searching> <preprocessor>tclProcName</preprocessor> <postprocessor>tclProcName<postprocessor> <searchResultFormatterCommands> <procedureAliasName>trueProcedureName</procedureAliasName> <uppercase>uppercase</uppercase> </searchResultFormatterCommands> </searching>
The elements below the searching
element have the following
meaning:
postprocessor:
This element is optional. Its content can
be the name of a Tcl procedure which is called after a search request has
been processed. To the Tcl procedure the XML-Fragment
searchResults
, i.e. the search result as a string, is passed
as the only argument. The procedure can modify this fragment and must return
it as a syntactically correct XML string.preprocessor
: This element is optional. Its content can
be the name of a Tcl procedure which is called before the search process
itself is triggered. The XML fragment search
, originating from
the search request, is passed to the procedure as the only argument. The
procedure can modify this fragment if desired. The return value of the
procedure is required to be a string that forms a syntactically correct
search
element of a search query.searchResultFormatterCommands
: This element is optional.
Its subelements define the alias names and the real names of Tcl procedures
used for formatting the field values of documents returned by a search.
Each subelement assigns an alias to a name. The element name corresponds to
the alias, the element’s content to the procedure name. To such a procedure
the value to be formatted is passed as the only argument. The procedure’s
return value is the formatted string.The Tcl procedures referenced in the system configuration elements
described above should be implemented in a Tcl script file which is sourced
during start-up from one of the Search Server's script directories
(share/script/ses/serverCmds
and
instance/instanceName/script/ses/serverCmds
).
