# looqs - Full-text search with previews for your files
looqs is a tool that creates a full-text search index for your files. It allows you to look at previews where your

search terms have been found, as shown in the screenshots below.

## Goals and principles
* **Find & Preview**. Instead of merely telling you where your search phrase has been found, it should also render the corresponding portion/pages of the documents and highlight the searched words.
2022-04-24 15:51:58 +02:00
* **No daemons**. As some other desktop search projects are prone to have annoying daemons running that eat system resources away, this solution should make do without daemons where possible.
2021-08-11 21:05:39 +02:00
* **Easy setup**. Similiarly, there should be no need for heavy-weight databases. Instead, this solution tries to squeeze out the most from simple approaches. In particular, it relies on sqlite.
* **GUI & CLI**. Provide CLI interfaces and GUI interfaces
2021-08-11 21:05:39 +02:00
* **Sandboxing**. As reading and rendering lots of formats naturally opens the door for security bugs, those tasks are offloaded to small, sandboxed sub-processes to mitigate the effect of exploited vulnerabilities.

## Supported platforms
2022-04-24 15:51:58 +02:00
Linux (on amd64) is currently the main focus. Currently, I don't plan on supporting anything else and the sandboxing architecture does not make it likely. I suppose a version without sandboxing might be conceivable for other platforms, but I have no plans or resources to actively target anything but Linux at this point.
