- You can get a significant boost in performance using Sphinx Search
- instead of your database server to search for users and notices.
- <http://sphinxsearch.com/>.
- Configuration
- In StatusNet's configuration, you can adjust the following settings
- under 'sphinx':
- enabled: Set to true to enable. Default false.
- server: a string with the hostname of the sphinx server.
- port: an integer with the port number of the sphinx server.
- Requirements
- To use a Sphinx server to search users and notices, you also need
- to install, compile and enable the sphinx pecl extension for php on the
- client side, which itself depends on the sphinx development files.
- "pecl install sphinx" should take care of that. Add "extension=sphinx.so"
- to your php.ini and reload apache to enable it.
- You can update your MySQL or Postgresql databases to drop their fulltext
- search indexes, since they're now provided by sphinx.
- You will also need a Sphinx server to serve the search queries.
- On the sphinx server side, a script reads the main database and build
- the keyword index. A cron job reads the database and keeps the sphinx
- indexes up to date. scripts/sphinx-cron.sh should be called by cron
- every 5 minutes, for example. scripts/sphinx.sh is an init.d script
- to start and stop the sphinx search daemon.
- Server configuration
- scripts/gen_config.php can generate a sphinx.conf file listing MySQL
- data sources for your databases. You may need to tweak paths afterwards.
- $ plugins/SphinxSearch/scripts/gen_config.php > sphinx.conf
- If you wish, you can build a full config yourself based on sphinx.conf.sample
