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.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
**Filters (short form)**
|
||||
|

## 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.
|
||||
* **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.
|
||||
* **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.

* **Easy setup**. Similarly, there should be no need for heavy-weight databases. Instead, looqs tries to squeeze out the most from simple approaches. In particular, it relies on sqlite.
|
||||
* **GUI & CLI**. Provide CLI interfaces and GUI interfaces
|
||||
* **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.

|
||||
## Features
|
||||
- GUI, CLI interface
|
||||
- Indexing of file path and some metadata.
|
||||
- Indexing of file file content for FTS search. Currently: .pdf, odt, docx, plaintext.
|
||||
- Preview of file formats: Currently: .pdf, plaintext
|
||||
- Highlight searched terms.
|
||||
- Quickly open PDF viewer or text editor at location of preview
|
||||
- Search filters
|
||||
|
||||
## Supported platforms
|
||||
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.

## Build
|
||||
|
||||
### Ubuntu 21.10/22.04
|
||||
|
||||
To build on Ubuntu, clone the repo and then run:
|
||||
```
|
||||
git submodule init
|
||||
git submodule update
|

@ -49,10 +78,10 @@ qmake
|
||||
make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The GUI is located in `gui/looqs-gui`, the binary for the CLI is in `cli/looqs`
|
||||
|
||||
This may also work on Debian, but it's untested.
