It is motivated by the fact that using 1-minute (or more) frecquency cronjobs to do the incremental indexing of records does not scale for us, nor is accepted by our librarians. Using an indexing daemon avoids launching a new interpreter each time the cron triggers the indexing, and also allows sub-minute reindexing. Frecquency is hardcoded right now. A follow up could provide a way to set it for each instance. This patch relies on Koha::Contrib::Tamil's koha-index-daemon script [2], but could be easily adjusted to use another if we got a new one (SolR?). I havent got the time to setup my infrastructure to generate my own debs, and thus haven't got the oportunity to test this patch. If anyone with the skills helps me on setting that I could test them and fix possible issues. If there's something I could change to make this patches better just let me know. Regards To+ [1] http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8519 [2] The default cronjob that is set using the debian/koha-common.cron.d file is being disbaled by this patch to avoid collision.

http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8773 --- Comment #5 from Tomás Cohen Arazi <tomascohen@gmail.com> --- Until we get Koha::Contrib::Tamil::IndexerDaemon packed as a .deb file (Bug 8774), it needs to be manually installed for testing this patch. As building the packages takes some time depending on your hardware, i've uploaded the .deb files to http://es.koha-community.org/kc_files/ so they can be tested. You need to grab the koha-common*.deb file, install it (using dpkg -i <file>) and probably create a new koha instance (koha-create --create-db instance). It is worth checking if upon upgrade the running instances get their indexer daemon running automagically. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Created attachment 12294 [details] initial test run for koha-common .deb (newer one)

I got my VM with the current koha-common. I did dpkg -i <yourkoha-commom> and I've attached what I saw. See initial test run for koha-common .deb (newer one)

Looks like you had a 'biblio' instance previously created, with an uninitialized db. I think that is a bug on the installer / upgrader itself. I'd purge Koha-common, delete /etc/Koha/sites and install the .deb. other option would be going through the webinstall process prior To the dpkg upgrade. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I downloed the http://es.koha-community.org/kc_files/koha-common_3.9.0-046~git+201209171913... and scp'ed it to the debian VM in /. I alreadu had the koha-community squeeze main in sources.list As root did: apt-get update apt-get -f install dpkg -i /koha-common_3.9.0-046~git+20120917191354.7807a548_all.deb (I got a lot mof missing dependecies reported and a n error at the end) ethyian noted that dpkg doesn't install those, so i just did: apt-get -f install and answered Yes. and watched all of them get installed, including koha-common which installed without a hitch. zebra and indexer services were started. I created a db instance and the web installer complained about Template::Plugin::HtmlToText not being installed (reqd), but that is recent and should not fail this patch. Possibly improvements to note: The indexer will respawn every 30 seconds generating entries in its log file. Once the index is rebuilt the indexer is happy. But that could be noted with install instructions. Nice job! wajasu -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

--- Comment #10 from Robin Sheat <robin@catalyst.net.nz> ---
>From reading the patch:
* It updates the man pages. Yay!
* It looks good overall.

My one concern is that it makes the index-daemon the default. As such, I'm not
sure if we should be including the patch as is. What I'm thinking I might do
(when I've given it a proper test, too) is add a followup script that prevents
it being on by default, but makes it very easy to switch.

http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8773 --- Comment #12 from Robin Sheat <robin@catalyst.net.nz> --- More things I've noticed: I'd be quite reluctant to make libkoha-contrib-tamil-perl a dependency on this, for two reasons: 1) It's contrib. Contrib things should not be required dependencies. If we make it a standard thing, then we should pull the required parts into Koha. 2) it puts in a number of unrelated scripts, which are generally useful, but are confusing as they are are in /usr/bin when some of them should be in /usr/sbin, and they don't tend to work in the same way as the packages, which means that if people see they're there, they'll wonder why they don't work like everything else that starts with koha- Other things: * This patch doesn't update control.in, so libkoha-contrib-tamil-perl package will never be installed anyway, and things won't work. I'm not able to build it on master (not your fault, master isn't building right now) so haven't made any progress on proper testing. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

The lines that control the koha-index-daemon are properly left and comented out so the users that want to test this feature have everything already set.

http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8773 --- Comment #15 from Robin Sheat <robin@catalyst.net.nz> --- Tomás and I talked about this, what we're going to do for now is implement this in a way that it's easy for people to test it. I'd like to see it get in, but we can't make Koha depend on Koha::Contrib::Tamil in its current form. I would like to see the Indexer stuff eventually pulled into Koha itself, but it'll need some refactoring to suit that. Alternately, we could use another index daemon, and this code will be very easy to change to support it. So we win on all counts. So what I'm going to do is make a followup to this that checks to see if the required stuff is there, and if it isn't, it'll send people to a wiki page that describes enabling it. This way it's available to advanced users, but not getting in the way on a default install. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8773 --- Comment #45 from Martin Renvoize <martin.renvoize@ptfs-europe.com> --- Created attachment 29575 --> http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=29575&action=edit [SIGNED OFF] Bug 8773 - Start per-instance koha-index-daemon in .deb setup Short: Launch an indexing daemon (rebuild_zebra.pl -daemon) process for each enabled instance. Enabling/disabling the use of the indexer is handled by global configuration variables in /etc/default/koha-common. Also provides command line tools to manage the running indexer daemons for your instances. Long: Using an indexing daemon avoids launching a new interpreter each time the cron triggers the indexing, and also allows sub-minute incremental reindexing, a requirement from our librarians.[1] Using the indexer daemon could remain "experimental" until it gets more testing; so is disabled by default initially. To enable the use of the indexer the user has to tweak the /etc/default/koha-common config file. Specifically the USE_INDEXER_DAEMON variable, which is clearly explained in the file. Frecquency defaults to 5 sec, and can be changed by tweaking the /etc/default/koha-common config file too. This patch uses rebuild_zebra.pl in daemon mode, but it is crafted to allow changing the indexing daemon and passing specific option switches it might need.
