Development Projects
This document is adapted from the current TODO file and feature
suggestions sent to the bug database. It's obviously not the
end-all or be-all of possibilities (especially if you have a
cool suggestion). For more projects or suggestions on starting
points, e-mail the developer list: htdig-dev.
- Reorganize documentation into "logical" topics.
- Categories already assigned, need to write a script to
break attrs.html into appropriate files.
- Perl, PHP, Java Servlet, ASP "wrappers" for htsearch
- Internationalization: Unicode/UTF-8 support
- Several libraries exist, we need to pick one and add
support in String.cc
- Support for XML
- MIME detection using "magic" like Apache's mod_mime_magic,
file command
- Multithreaded indexing
- Multiple proxy servers
- Exclude servers based on server software
- URL weighting factors
- If keyword is in URL, document should match
Restrict access to htsearch by Referer: HTTP header
Indexing binary files by filename (simply need to write a
minimal parser for this)
Search by example
List all documents (i.e. search for nothing)
Support for SQL backend database (patch exists for 3.1.x)
Search for included images
