{
{ "accents_db", "${database_base}.accents.db", \
"string", "htfuzzy htsearch", "", "all", "File Layout", "accents_db: ${database_base}.uml.db", " \
The database file used for the fuzzy \"accents\" search \
algorithm. This database is created by \
<a href=\"htfuzzy.html\">htfuzzy</a> and used by \
<a href=\"htsearch.html\" target=\"_top\">htsearch</a>. \
" }, \
{ "accept_language", "", \
"string list", "htdig", "Server", "3.2.0b4", "Indexing:Out", "accept_language: en-us en it", " \
This attribute allows you to restrict the set of natural languages \
that are preferred as a response to an HTTP request performed by the \
digger. This can be done by putting one or more language tags \
(as defined by RFC 1766) in the preferred order, separated by spaces. \
By doing this, when the server performs a content negotiation based \
on the 'accept-language' given by the HTTP user agent, a different \
content can be shown depending on the value of this attribute. If \
set to an empty list, no language will be sent and the server default \
will be returned. \
" }, \
{ "add_anchors_to_excerpt", "true", \
"boolean", "htsearch", "", "3.1.0", "Presentation:How", "add_anchors_to_excerpt: no", " \
If set to true, the first occurrence of each matched \
word in the excerpt will be linked to the closest \
anchor in the document. This only has effect if the \
<strong>EXCERPT</strong> variable is used in the output \
template and the excerpt is actually going to be displayed. \
" }, \
{ "allow_double_slash", "false", \
"boolean", "htdig", "", "3.2.0b4", "Indexing:Out", "allow_double_slash: true", " \
If set to true, strings of multiple slashes ('/') in URL paths \
will be left intact, rather than being collapsed. This is necessary \
for some search engine URLs which use slashes to separate fields rather \
than to separate directory components. However, it can lead to multiple database \
entries refering to the same file, and it causes '/foo//../' to \
be equivalent to '/foo/', rather than to '/'. \
" }, \
{ "allow_in_form", "", \
"string list", "htsearch", "", "3.1.0", "Searching:UI", "allow_in_form: search_algorithm search_results_header", " \
Allows the specified config file attributes to be specified \
in search forms as separate fields. This could be used to \
allow form writers to design their own headers and footers \
and specify them in the search form. Another example would \
be to offer a menu of search_algorithms in the form. \
<table> \
<tr> \
<td nowrap> \
<code> \
<SELECT NAME=\"search_algorithm\"><br> \
<OPTION VALUE=\"exact:1 prefix:0.6 synonyms:0.5 endings:0.1\" SELECTED>fuzzy<br> \
<OPTION VALUE=\"exact:1\">exact<br> \
</SELECT> \
</code></td> \
</tr> \
</table> \
The general idea behind this is to make an input parameter out \
of any configuration attribute that's not already automatically \
handled by an input parameter. You can even make up your own \
configuration attribute names, for purposes of passing data from \
the search form to the results output. You're not restricted to \
the existing attribute names. The attributes listed in the \
allow_in_form list will be settable in the search form using \
input parameters of the same name, and will be propagated to \
the follow-up search form in the results template using template \
variables of the same name in upper-case. \
You can also make select lists out of any of these input \
parameters, in the follow-up search form, using the \
<a href=\"#build_select_lists\">build_select_lists</a> \
configuration attribute. \
<br>WARNING: Extreme care are should be taken with this option, as \
allowing CGI scripts to set file names can open security holes.\
" }, \
{ "allow_numbers", "false", \
"boolean", "htdig htsearch", "", "all", "Indexing:What", "allow_numbers: true", " \
If set to true, numbers are considered words. This \
means that searches can be done on strings of digits as well as \
regular words. All the same rules apply to numbers as \
to words. This does not cause numbers containing a decimal point or \
commas to be treated as a single entity. \
When allow_numbers is false, words are stil \
allowed to contain digits, but they must also contain at \
least one alphabetic character or \
<a href=\"#extra_word_characters\">extra word</a> character. \
To disallow digits in words, add the digits to \
<a href=\"#valid_punctuation\">valid_punctuation</a>. \
" }, \
{ "allow_space_in_url", "false", \
"boolean", "htdig", "", "3.2.0b6", "Indexing:Where", "allow_space_in_url: true", " \
If set to true, htdig will handle URLs that contain \
embedded spaces. Technically, this is a violation of \
RFC 2396, which says spaces should be stripped out \
(as htdig does by default). However, many web browsers \
and HTML code generators violate this standard already, \
so enabling this attribute allows htdig to handle these \
non-compliant URLs. Even with this attribute set, htdig \
still strips out all white space (leading, trailing and \
embedded), except that space characters embedded within \
the URL will be encoded as %20. \
" }, \
{ "allow_virtual_hosts", "true", \
"boolean", "htdig", "", "3.0.8b2", "Indexing:Where", "allow_virtual_hosts: false", " \
If set to true, htdig will index virtual web sites as \
expected. If false, all URL host names will be \
normalized into whatever the DNS server claims the IP \
address to map to. If this option is set to false, \
there is no way to index either \"soft\" or \"hard\" \
virtual web sites. \
" }, \
{ "anchor_target", "", \
"string", "htsearch", "", "3.1.6", "Presentation:How", "anchor_target: body", " \
When the first matched word in the excerpt is linked \
to the closest anchor in the document, this string \
can be set to specify a target in the link so the \
resulting page is displayed in the desired frame. \
This value will only be used if the \
<a href=\"#add_anchors_to_excerpt\">add_anchors_to_excerpt</a> \
attribute is set to true, the <strong>EXCERPT</strong> \
variable is used in the output template and the \
excerpt is actually displayed with a link. \
" }, \
{ "any_keywords", "false", \
"boolean", "htsearch", "", "3.2.0b2", "Searching:Method", "any_keywords: yes", " \
If set to true, the words in the <strong>keywords</strong> \
input parameter in the search form will be joined with logical \
ORs rather than ANDs, so that any of the words provided will do. \
Note that this has nothing to do with limiting the search to \
words in META keywords tags. See the <a href=\"hts_form.html\"> \
search form</a> documentation for details on this. \
" }, \
{ "author_factor", "1", \
"number", "htsearch", "", "3.2.0b4", "Searching:Ranking", "author_factor: 1", " \
Weighting applied to words in a <meta name=\"author\" ... > \
tag.<br> \
See also <a href=\"#heading_factor\">heading_factor</a>. \
" }, \
{ "authorization", "", \
"string", "htdig", "URL", "3.1.4", "Indexing:Out", "authorization: myusername:mypassword", " \
This tells htdig to send the supplied \
<em>username</em><strong>:</strong><em>password</em> with each HTTP request. \
The credentials will be encoded using the \"Basic\" authentication \
scheme. There <em>must</em> be a colon (:) between the username and \
password.<br> \
This attribute can also be specified on htdig's command line using \
the -u option, and will be blotted out so it won't show up in a \
process listing. If you use it directly in a configuration file, \
be sure to protect it so it is readable only by you, and do not \
use that same configuration file for htsearch. \
" }, \
{ "backlink_factor", "0.1", \
"number", "htsearch", "", "3.1.0", "Searching:Ranking", "backlink_factor: 501.1", " \
This is a weight of \"how important\" a page is, based on \
the number of URLs pointing to it. It's actually \
multiplied by the ratio of the incoming URLs (backlinks) \
and outgoing URLs (links on the page), to balance out pages \
with lots of links to pages that link back to them. The ratio \
gives lower weight to \"link farms\", which often have many \
links to them. This factor can \
be changed without changing the database in any way. \
However, setting this value to something other than 0 \
incurs a slowdown on search results. \

"string list", "htdig", "URL", "all", "Indexing:Where", "bad_extensions: .foo .bar .bad", " \
This is a list of extensions on URLs which are \
considered non-parsable. This list is used mainly to \
supplement the MIME-types that the HTTP server provides \
with documents. Some HTTP servers do not have a correct \
list of MIME-types and so can advertise certain \
documents as text while they are some binary format. \
If the list is empty, then all extensions are acceptable, \
provided they pass other criteria for acceptance or rejection. \
See also <a href=\"#valid_extensions\">valid_extensions</a>. \
" }, \
{ "bad_local_extensions", ".php .shtml .cgi", \
"string list", "htdig", "URL", "all", "Indexing:Where", "bad_extensions: .foo .bar .bad", " \
This is a list of extensions on URLs which must be retrieved \
using the URL's true transport mechanism (such as HTTP). \
If <a href=\"#local_urls\">local_urls</a> is specified, URLs not \
ending with these extensions may instead be retrieved through \
the local filesystem for efficiency. \
" },

"pattern list", "htdig", "URL", "3.1.0", "Indexing:Where", "bad_querystr: forum=private section=topsecret&passwd=required", " \
This is a list of CGI query strings to be excluded from \
indexing. This can be used in conjunction with CGI-generated \
portions of a website to control which pages are \
indexed. \

{ "bad_word_list", "${common_dir}/bad_words", \
"string", "htdig htsearch", "", "all", "Indexing:What,Searching:Method", "bad_word_list: ${common_dir}/badwords.txt", " \
This specifies a file which contains words which should \
be excluded when digging or searching. This list should \
include the most common words or other words that you \
don't want to be able to search on (things like <em> \
sex</em> or <em>smut</em> are examples of these.)<br> \
The file should contain one word per line. A sample \
bad words file is located in the <code>contrib/examples</code> \
directory. \

"string", "all", "", "all", "File Layout", "bin_dir: /usr/local/bin", " \

the corresponding name list attribute which enumerates all the \

attribute. The entries in this list each consist of an octuple, \
a set of eight strings defining the variables and how they are to \
be used to build a select list. The attribute can contain many \
of these octuples. The strings in the string list are merely \
taken eight at a time. For each octuple of strings specified in \
build_select_lists, the elements have the following meaning: \
<ol> \
<li>the name of the template variable to be defined as a list, \
optionally followed by a comma and the type of list, and \
optional formatting codes \
<li>the input parameter name that the select list will set \
<li>the name of the user-defined attribute containing the \
name list \
<li>the tuple size used in the name list above \
<li>the index into a name list tuple for the value \
<li>the index for the corresponding label on the selector \
<li>the configuration attribute where the default value for \

This attribute is used to specify a list of \
content-type/parsers that are to be used to parse \
documents that cannot by parsed by any of the internal \
parsers. The list of external parsers is examined \
before the builtin parsers are checked, so this can be \
used to override the internal behavior without \
recompiling htdig.<br> \
The external parsers are specified as pairs of \
strings. The first string of each pair is the \
content-type that the parser can handle while the \
second string of each pair is the path to the external \
parsing program. If quoted, it may contain parameters, \
separated by spaces.<br> \
External parsing can also be done with external \
converters, which convert one content-type to \
another. To do this, instead of just specifying \
a single content-type as the first string \
of a pair, you specify two types, in the form \
<em>type1</em><strong>-></strong><em>type2</em>, \
as a single string with no spaces. The second \
string will define an external converter \
rather than an external parser, to convert \
the first type to the second. If the second \
type is <strong>user-defined</strong>, then \
it's up to the converter script to put out a \
\"Content-Type: <em>type</em>\" header followed \
by a blank line, to indicate to htdig what type it \
should expect for the output, much like what a CGI \
script would do. The resulting content-type must \
be one that htdig can parse, either internally, \
or with another external parser or converter.<br> \
Only one external parser or converter can be \
specified for any given content-type. However, \
an external converter for one content-type can be \
chained to the internal parser for the same type, \
by appending <strong>-internal</strong> to the \
second type string (e.g. text/html->text/html-internal) \
to perform external preprocessing on documents of \
this type before internal parsing. \
There are two internal parsers, for text/html and \
text/plain.<p> \
The parser program takes four command-line \
parameters, not counting any parameters already \
given in the command string:<br> \

with a newline. Each record is a series of (unless \

the database, this can really slow down searches \
considerably. \
<dd> \
<dt> \
prefix \
</dt> \
<dd> \
Matches all words beginning with the query \
strings. Uses the option <a \
href=\"#prefix_match_character\">prefix_match_character</a> \
to decide whether a query requires prefix \
matching. For example \"abc*\" would perform prefix \
matching on \"abc\" since * is the default \
prefix_match_character. \
</dd> \
<dt> \
regex \
</dt> \
<dd> \
Matches all words that match the patterns given as regular \
expressions. Since this requires checking every word in \
the database, this can really slow down searches \
considerably. The config file used for searching \
must include the regex meta-characters (^$\\[-]|.*) \
included in <a href=\"#extra_word_characters\">extra_word_characters</a>, \

<dd> \
<dt> \
speling \

A list of translations pairs <em>from</em> and \
<em>to</em>, used when accessing the database. \
If a part of an URL matches with the \
<em>from</em>-string of each pair, it will be \
translated into the <em>to</em>-string just before \
writing the URL to the database, and translated \
back just after reading it from the database.<br> \
This is primarily used to provide an easy way to \
rename parts of URLs for e.g. changing \
www.example.com/~htdig to www.htdig.org. Two \
different configuration files for digging and \
searching are then used, with url_part_aliases \
having different <em>from</em> strings, but \
identical <em>to</em>-strings.<br> \
See also <a \
href=\"#common_url_parts\">common_url_parts</a>.<br> \
Strings that are normally incorrect in URLs or \
very seldom used, should be used as \
<em>to</em>-strings, since extra storage will be \
used each time one is found as normal part of a \
URL. Translations will be performed with priority \
for the leftmost longest match. Each \
<em>to</em>-string must be unique and not be a \
part of any other <em>to</em>-string. It also helps \
to keep the <em>to</em>-strings short to save space \
in the database. Other than that, the choice of \
<em>to</em>-strings is pretty arbitrary, as they \
just provide a temporary, internal encoding in the \
databases, and none of the characters in these \
strings have any special meaning.<br> \
Note that when this attribute is changed, the \
database should be rebuilt, unless the effect of \
\"moving\" the affected URLs in the database is \
wanted, as described above.<br> \
<strong>Please note:</strong> Don't just copy the \
example below into a single configuration file. \
There are two separate settings of \
<em>url_part_aliases</em> below; the first one is \
for the configuration file to be used by htdig, \
htmerge, and htnotify, and the second one is for the \
configuration file to be used by htsearch. \
In this example, htdig will encode the URL \
\"http://search.example.com/~htdig/contrib/stuff.html\" \
as \"*sitecontrib/stuff*2\" in the databases, and \
htsearch will decode it as \
\"http://www.htdig.org/contrib/stuff.htm\".<br> \

This is a list of pairs, <em>regex</em> <em>replacement</em> used to \
permanently rewrite URLs as they are indexed. The left hand string is \
a regular expression; the right hand string is a literal string with \

substrings. Note that the <strong>entire</strong> URL is replaced by \
the right hand string (not just the portion which matches the left hand\
string). Thus, a leading and trailing (.*) should be included in the \
pattern, with matching placeholders in the replacement string.<br> \
Rewrite rules are applied sequentially to each \
incoming URL before normalization occurs. Rewriting does not stop \
once a match has been made, so multiple rules may affect a given URL. \

This is a list of extensions on URLs which are \
the only ones considered acceptable. This list is used to \
supplement the MIME-types that the HTTP server provides \
with documents. Some HTTP servers do not have a correct \
list of MIME-types and so can advertise certain \
documents as text while they are some binary format. \
If the list is empty, then all extensions are acceptable, \
provided they pass other criteria for acceptance or rejection. \
If the list is not empty, only documents with one of the \
extensions in the list are parsed. \

This is the set of characters which may be deleted \
from the document before determining what a word is. \
This means that if a document contains something like \
<code>half-hearted</code> the digger will see this as the three \
words <code> half</code>, <code>hearted</code> and \
<code>halfhearted</code>.<br> \
These characters are also removed before keywords are passed to the \
search engine, so a search for \"half-hearted\" works as expected.<br> \
Note that the dollar sign ($) and backslash (\\) must be escaped by a \
backslash in both valid_punctuation and extra_word_characters. \
Moreover, the backslash should not be the last character on the line. \
There is currently no way to include a back-quote (`) in \
extra_word_characters or valid_punctuation.<br> \
