cindex ignores IRC log files
GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · comments
https://code.google.com/p/codesearch/source/browse/cmd/cindex/cindex.go#132 has
the relevant line of code. Effectively when I run cindex on my IRC log
directory, I get an index of *only* the private conversations. Public
conversations are in files named after the channel, so for example:
`2014/#ubuntu.03.log`.
cindex decides to ignore dotfiles, tildefiles, and for some reason probably
relating to EMACS, files beginning with an octothorpe ('#'). There does not
seem to be any command-line switch to disable this file-skipping (-a would seem
appropriate), and no way to provide custom include/exclude rules.
Since searching IRC logs is probably more common for me than searching code, it
makes this amazing tool rather less useful for me!

With thanks for your advice, please: may be you have an estimate for when your
implementation will reach trunk.

rsc has stated in the past that this project is not super alive and is good
enough for them in the state it is.

Also, this issue you filed has a similar bug already
https://code.google.com/p/codesearch/issues/detail?id=28
that hasn't been accepted for fixing. At this point I've kept on adding
features I've found useful to my code and it keeps diverging. If rsc indicates
an interest in taking a patch, I could extract and attach one here. Otherwise
using my fork remains your option.
