To solve the problem of indexing Koha in background, bug 5166, we can insert Frédéric Demians instruction into documentation, with a link to the wiki. The instructions of Frédéric Demians: I have an alternative implementation of a patch for this bug. I've packaged it as a CPAN module for easy testing. It contains two scripts: one for punctual indexing, and one for queued records indexing. What is specific to this implementation: - No use of POE, but AnyEvent: http://search.cpan.org/dist/AnyEvent/ - Moose OO classes - Export records for Zebra only in XML - No records content modification (leader, authority id, unimarc 100 tag). As it is, it works with a lot of UNIMARC/MARC21 Koha instances loaded with various records types. How to test it: - Install the module: sudo cpan Koha::Contrib::Tamil - You have two scripts installed: koha-index koha-index-daemon - You can access their respective man pages: man koha-index man koha-index-daemon - To reindex a whole DB, standard env variable being set: koha-index --verbose koha-index --source authority --verbose - To start the indexing daemon, with indexing occurring every minute: koha-index-daemon - To start the same daemon, with indexing occuring every 30 seconds: koha-index-daemon --timeout 30
