I am a Symfony developer and my web server is Linux. I already use the sfLucene plugin.
What is the simplest way of indexing PDF files for search on a Linux PHP server?
- XPDF, installed like this
- Apache Tika via the SOLR sfLucene plugin branch
- A 3rd option?
Thanks!
Coming from a Zend background, i generally recommend using Zend_Search_Lucene. The XPDF example is really straight forward and looks simple. XPDF is licenced as GPL – if that fits your need, go for #1!
ZF can easily be integrated within your Symfony projects, e.g. for a Twitter Call.
