Summary: Review Request: python-whoosh - Fast, pure-Python full text indexing, search, and spell checking library https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=546704 Summary: Review Request: python-whoosh - Fast, pure-Python full text indexing, search, and spell checking library Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: medium Component: Package Review AssignedTo: nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: allisson@xxxxxxxxx QAContact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: notting@xxxxxxxxxx, fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx Estimated Hours: 0.0 Classification: Fedora Spec URL: http://allisson.fedorapeople.org/packages/python-whoosh/python-whoosh.spec SRPM URL: http://allisson.fedorapeople.org/packages/python-whoosh/python-whoosh-0.3.9-1.fc12.src.rpm Description: Whoosh is a fast, featureful full-text indexing and searching library implemented in pure Python. Whoosh was created and is maintained by MattChaput. It was originally created for use in the online help system of Side Effects Software's 3D animation software Houdini. Side Effects Software Inc. graciously agreed to open-source the code. Some of Whoosh's features include: Pythonic API. Pure-Python. No compilation or binary packages needed, no mysterious crashes. Fielded indexing and search. Fast indexing and retrieval -- faster than any other pure-Python, scoring, full-text search solution I know of. Pluggable scoring algorithm (including BM25F), text analysis, storage, posting format, etc. Powerful query language parsed by pyparsing. Pure Python spell-checker (as far as I know, the only one). Whoosh might be useful in the following circumstances: Anywhere a pure-Python solution is desirable to avoid having to build/compile native libraries (or force users to build/compile them). As a research platform (at least for programmers that find Python easier to read and work with than Java ;) When an easy-to-use Pythonic interface is more important to you than raw speed.
