Fulltext search with Files?
-
Hi there,
anybody here who configured Nextcloud on Cloudron successfully to enable fulltext search for file contents? I tried the Nextcloud Apps but without any success - only filename search, but not file content search.
If there is some kind of different solution, like using a independet search service for Nextcloud, that would be okay for me as a solution.
Best,

The Nextcloud Full Text search app requires:
Some Providers Apps to extract content from your Nextcloud.
A Platform App that communicate with a search platform (ie. Elastic Search, Solr, …) in order to index the content provided by the Providers.
Note: There is no limit to the number of platform-apps that can be installed, however only one can be selected from the admin interfacehttps://github.com/nextcloud/fulltextsearch
I think we'd all be very happy if somehow @staff could make it possible for us to use the Solr Cloudron already has for email search for Nextcloud Full Text search too

@jdaviescoates afaik, there is no solr backend. Only ElasticSearch - https://github.com/nextcloud/fulltextsearch/wiki .

ElasticSearch
Bring on the Cloudron ElasticSearch addon then!

But the link you've just pointed mentioned Solr as a backend, no?

@avatar1024 I couldn't find any information on setting it up with Solr. Please do link if you find anything more .
@girish I did find a github repo for a possibly usable Nextcloud Fulltext Solr app, but the last Update was 2019

I see, my bad, I got confused cause they still advertise it but they have in fact moved away from it. https://help.nextcloud.com/t/solr-in-nextcloud-24/141277/4
The Fulltextsearch elastic app latest release is 2021 (though with recent activity) so it feels like a bit of a mess.
