The Recoll KIO slave - allows performing a Recoll search by entering an - appropriate URL in a KDE open dialog, or with an - HTML-based interface displayed in Konqueror.
-The HTML-based interface is similar to the Qt-based - interface, but slightly less powerful for now. Its - advantage is that you can perform your search while - staying fully within the KDE framework: drag and drop - from the result list works normally and you have your - normal choice of applications for opening files.
-The alternative interface uses a directory view of - search results. Due to limitations in the current KIO - slave interface, it is currently not obviously useful (to - me).
-The interface is described in more detail inside a
- help file which you can access by entering recoll:/ inside the konqueror URL line
- (this works only if the recoll KIO slave has been
- previously installed).
The instructions for building this module are located
- in the source tree. See: kde/kio/recoll/00README.txt. Some Linux
- distributions do package the kio-recoll module, so check
- before diving into the build process, maybe it's already
- out there ready for one-click installation.
As a sample application, the Recoll KIO slave could allow - preparing a set of HTML documents (for example a manual) - so that they become their own search interface inside - konqueror.
-This can be done by either explicitly inserting
- <a
- href="recoll://..."> links around some document
- areas, or automatically by adding a very small
- javascript program to
- the documents, like the following example, which would
- initiate a search by double-clicking any term:
<script language="JavaScript">
- function recollsearch() {
- var t = document.getSelection();
- window.location.href = 'recoll://search/query?qtp=a&p=0&q=' +
- encodeURIComponent(t);
- }
- </script>
- ....
- <body ondblclick="recollsearch()">
